All your pipelines in minutes, however custom they are, thanks to Airbyte’s connector marketplace and AI Connector Builder.

Start syncing with Airbyte in 3 easy steps within 10 minutes

Set up a Yotpo connector in Airbyte

Connect to Yotpo or one of 400+ pre-built or 10,000+ custom connectors through simple account authentication.

Set up MongoDB for your extracted Yotpo data

Select MongoDB where you want to import data from your Yotpo source to. You can also choose other cloud data warehouses, databases, data lakes, vector databases, or any other supported Airbyte destinations.

Configure the Yotpo to MongoDB in Airbyte

This includes selecting the data you want to extract - streams and columns -, the sync frequency, where in the destination you want that data to be loaded.

How to Sync Yotpo to MongoDB Manually

Begin by familiarizing yourself with Yotpo's API documentation to understand how to access the data you need. Determine the endpoints for the data you wish to extract. Simultaneously, review MongoDB's requirements for data insertion, including data structure and format.

Create an API key in Yotpo to authenticate your requests. This typically involves generating an API token from your Yotpo account settings. Store this token securely as it will be used to authenticate your API calls.

Write a script in a programming language such as Python or Node.js to make HTTP requests to the Yotpo API. Use the API token for authentication and specify the headers and parameters needed to fetch the desired data. Use libraries like `requests` in Python or `axios` in Node.js to facilitate HTTP requests.

Once the data is retrieved, parse the JSON response to extract relevant fields. Transform the data into a format compatible with MongoDB, ensuring that it adheres to MongoDB's BSON format. This may involve converting data types and structuring nested arrays or documents appropriately.

Ensure that MongoDB is installed and running on your server or local environment. Set up a database and collection within MongoDB where the Yotpo data will be stored. Use the `mongo` shell or a GUI tool like MongoDB Compass to create the necessary database and collection.

Extend your script to connect to your MongoDB instance using a library such as `pymongo` for Python or `mongodb` for Node.js. Use the `insert_one` or `insert_many` methods to insert the transformed data into your MongoDB collection. Handle any potential errors, such as connectivity issues or data type mismatches, during this process.

Test your script thoroughly to ensure that data is correctly extracted from Yotpo and inserted into MongoDB. Once verified, schedule the script to run at regular intervals if ongoing data transfer is required. Use cron jobs on Linux or Task Scheduler on Windows to automate the execution at specified times.

By following these steps, you can efficiently move data from Yotpo to MongoDB while maintaining control over the process and ensuring data integrity.

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.

Yotpo is a customer content marketing platform that helps businesses generate and leverage customer reviews, photos, and Q&A to increase sales and build brand loyalty. The platform offers a suite of tools that enable businesses to collect and showcase user-generated content across various channels, including their website, social media, and email marketing campaigns. Yotpo also provides advanced analytics and insights to help businesses understand their customers' behavior and preferences, as well as tools to engage with customers and respond to their feedback. Overall, Yotpo helps businesses create a more authentic and engaging customer experience that drives growth and customer loyalty.

Yotpo's API provides access to a wide range of data related to customer reviews, ratings, and user-generated content. The following are the categories of data that can be accessed through Yotpo's API:

1. Reviews and Ratings: Yotpo's API provides access to all customer reviews and ratings for a particular product or service.

2. User-Generated Content: Yotpo's API allows access to user-generated content such as photos, videos, and social media posts related to a particular product or service.

3. Customer Data: Yotpo's API provides access to customer data such as name, email address, and location.

Overall, Yotpo's API provides a comprehensive set of data that can be used to gain insights into customer behavior, improve product offerings, and optimize marketing strategies.

This can be done by building a data pipeline manually, usually a Python script (you can leverage a tool as Apache Airflow for this). This process can take more than a full week of development. Or it can be done in minutes on Airbyte in three easy steps: 
1. Set up Yotpo to MongoDB as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
2. Choose a destination (more than 50 available destination databases, data warehouses or lakes) to sync data too and set it up as a destination connector
3. Define which data you want to transfer from Yotpo to MongoDB and how frequently
You can choose to self-host the pipeline using Airbyte Open Source or have it managed for you with Airbyte Cloud. 

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.

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.
