Which export should I use?

Northbeam offers several ways to export or access your data. The right option depends on the dataset you need, where you want it delivered, and whether you want a file, an automated pipeline, or an answer from an AI tool.

How to choose

• You need a spreadsheet. Use the Sales page export. It covers most one-off analysis and can be scheduled daily, weekly, or monthly without any engineering work.
• You need the individual touchpoints behind each order, not aggregated performance. Use the Touchpoints Export. This is the only option that returns one row per touchpoint with its attribution credit.
• You are building a pipeline. Use the Data Export API, which lets you set the attribution model, window, accounting mode, level, and breakdowns per request.
• You want to ask a question rather than move a file. Use the Northbeam MCP server.

FAQs

​

How can I receive CSV file exports attached to emails?

Currently, scheduled exports provide a link to your dashboard for file downloads. Our Product team is aware of the request to attach files directly to emails, but there is no timeline for this feature at the moment.

​

How can I get Northbeam data into Google Sheets?

There is no built-in Google Sheets export. If you have development resources available, there are three approaches:

• Use Google Apps Script with the Data Export API to write data into Sheets.
• Export to GCS, then use the GCS connector in Sheets (Google’s documentation).
• Export a CSV and import it into Google Sheets.

​

How can I get Northbeam data into BigQuery?

Export the data into a custom Google Cloud Storage bucket — from either the Sales page or the API — then load it from GCS into BigQuery (Google’s documentation).

How can I get Northbeam data into Snowflake?
