"With Airbyte, we could just push a few buttons, allow API access, and bring all the data into Google BigQuery. By blending all the different marketing data sources, we can gain valuable insights."
Begin by thoroughly understanding the data structure and format used by Drift. This involves identifying the types of data you need to export, such as conversations, user information, or analytics, and ensuring you know the schema and any specific fields or attributes you need to retain. This foundational knowledge will guide your export and import processes.
Use Drift’s API to programmatically export the data. Drift provides REST APIs that can be accessed using HTTP requests. Write scripts using a programming language like Python or JavaScript to authenticate against the Drift API, request the necessary data, and retrieve it in a structured format such as JSON or CSV. Ensure you handle pagination and rate limits as per Drift’s API documentation.
Set up and configure your ClickHouse database to receive the data. This involves creating the necessary database and tables that match the schema of the data exported from Drift. Define appropriate data types for each column, considering ClickHouse’s efficient data storage capabilities. You can do this using ClickHouse’s SQL-like query language.
Transform the exported data to align with the schema you’ve set up in ClickHouse. This may involve data cleaning, such as normalizing dates, handling null values, and converting data types. Use a scripting language or data processing tool to automate this transformation process, ensuring your data is consistent and ready for import.
Use a native method to load the transformed data into ClickHouse. ClickHouse supports various methods for data insertion, such as using the `INSERT` command in SQL. For bulk data, consider using the `clickhouse-client` command-line tool, which allows you to pipe data directly into ClickHouse from CSV or TSV files. Ensure your data is properly formatted to match the expected input.
After the data is loaded, perform a thorough validation to ensure its integrity and completeness. This involves running queries to check data counts, comparing sample records with the original data in Drift, and verifying data types and formats. This step ensures that the migration process has preserved the accuracy and usability of your data.
If ongoing data migration is required, automate the entire process using cron jobs or a similar scheduling tool. This involves scheduling scripts to regularly extract, transform, and load new data from Drift to ClickHouse. Ensure your automation includes error handling and logging to monitor and troubleshoot any issues that arise during data transfers.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.
Advertised as the “First and only revenue acceleration platform,” Drift provides an array of conversational tools in one place. Live chat, email, video, virtual selling assistants, Drift intel and prospector, and more are all smoothly integrated for a seamless and frictionless communication experience.

Drift's API provides access to a wide range of data related to customer interactions and conversations. The following are the categories of data that can be accessed through Drift's API:
1. Conversations: This includes data related to all conversations between customers and agents, including conversation history, transcripts, and metadata.
2. Contacts: This includes data related to customer profiles, such as contact information, company details, and activity history.
3. Events: This includes data related to customer behavior, such as page views, clicks, and other actions taken on the website.
4. Campaigns: This includes data related to marketing campaigns, such as email campaigns, chat campaigns, and other promotional activities.
5. Integrations: This includes data related to third-party integrations, such as CRM systems, marketing automation tools, and other business applications.
6. Analytics: This includes data related to performance metrics, such as conversion rates, engagement rates, and other key performance indicators.
Overall, Drift's API provides a comprehensive set of data that can be used to gain insights into customer behavior, improve customer engagement, and optimize business processes.
What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
