Connector Improvement: Snapchat Ads: make creative data optional
Not planned
I am using the Snapchat Ads connector. We have a snapchat ads business account to which we have been added on other ad accounts in order to do reporting.
Currently, the Snapchat Ads connector requires the "Creative Manager" role, probably because the connector has the schema "creative_history" as a system table (I can't uncheck it).
However, for reporting this table is irrelevant. Having the simple "Member" role and no other roles is enough to pull ad campaign reports (e.g. using Singer https://github.com/singer-io/tap-snapchat-ads).
Please allow the connector to pull reporting data for ad accounts with role "Member" and no other roles.

Hi Guillaume, Drew from the Product Team here!
Snapchat has two types of roles: Organization Roles and Ad Account Roles. Please see Snapchat's documentation on this here: https://businesshelp.snapchat.com/s/article/roles-permissions?language=en_US
Member is an organization role which is acceptable for Fivetran. We request the Admin Ad Account role because it provides access to all of the Snap data. Creative Manager is a smaller role under Ad Account Roles which, as you said, enables access to creative data. To pull data related to the other tables, Fivetran would still require other roles from the Ad Account Roles section.

Hi Drew,
Would it be possible to make optional the tables which require higher permission, e.g. creative data?
My clients want to pull campaign history and campaign report, and nothing else, so they shouldn't need to authorize with an admin account. This kind of issue weighs on the user experience we offer.
Thanks
Regards
Guillaume
