Before you begin
Your accounts need specific permissions to pull data from Twitter Ads and Twitter Premium with Supermetrics. Make sure the accounts you want to pull data from meet the access levels below.
Twitter Public Data doesn't have any access requirements — any account can pull data from it.
Twitter Ads
Your account needs Campaign analyst access. Some dimensions might also need Ad manager access to an ad account. Learn how to grant ad account access.
Twitter Premium
Twitter Premium is only available to Supermetrics users with custom licenses. Contact our sales team if you'd like to learn more.
Note that Twitter Premium doesn't support multi-account logins or agency access. The API doesn't allow you to fetch data from multiple user accounts with one login — you'll need to add each user account separately.
