Create ETL applications and real-time data pipelines for Klaviyo data in Python with petl.
The rich ecosystem of Python modules lets you get to work quickly and integrate your systems more effectively. With the CData API Driver for Python and the petl framework, you can build Klaviyo-connected applications and pipelines for extracting, transforming, and loading Klaviyo data. This article shows how to connect to Klaviyo with the CData Python Connector and use petl and pandas to extract, transform, and load Klaviyo data.
With built-in, optimized data processing, the CData Python Connector offers unmatched performance for interacting with live Klaviyo data in Python. When you issue complex SQL queries from Klaviyo, the driver pushes supported SQL operations, like filters and aggregations, directly to Klaviyo and utilizes the embedded SQL engine to process unsupported operations client-side (often SQL functions and JOIN operations).
Connecting to Klaviyo Data
Connecting to Klaviyo data looks just like connecting to any relational data source. Create a connection string using the required connection properties. For this article, you will pass the connection string as a parameter to the create_engine function.
Start by setting the Profile connection property to the location of the Klaviyo Profile on disk (e.g. C:\profiles\Klaviyo.apip). Next, set the ProfileSettings connection property to the connection string for Klaviyo (see below).
Klaviyo API Profile Settings
To authenticate to Klaviyo, you will needto provide an API Key. You can generate or view your API keys under 'My Account' > 'Setting' > 'API Key' > 'Create API Key'. Set the API Key to your Klaviyo Key in the ProfileSettings connection property.
After installing the CData Klaviyo Connector, follow the procedure below to install the other required modules and start accessing Klaviyo through Python objects.
Install Required Modules
Use the pip utility to install the required modules and frameworks:
pip install petl pip install pandas
Build an ETL App for Klaviyo Data in Python
Once the required modules and frameworks are installed, we are ready to build our ETL app. Code snippets follow, but the full source code is available at the end of the article.
First, be sure to import the modules (including the CData Connector) with the following:
import petl as etl import pandas as pd import cdata.api as mod
You can now connect with a connection string. Use the connect function for the CData Klaviyo Connector to create a connection for working with Klaviyo data.
cnxn = mod.connect("Profile=C:\profiles\Klaviyo.apip;ProfileSettings='APIKey=my_api_key';")
Create a SQL Statement to Query Klaviyo
Use SQL to create a statement for querying Klaviyo. In this article, we read data from the Campaigns entity.
sql = "SELECT Id, Name FROM Campaigns WHERE Status = 'draft'"
Extract, Transform, and Load the Klaviyo Data
With the query results stored in a DataFrame, we can use petl to extract, transform, and load the Klaviyo data. In this example, we extract Klaviyo data, sort the data by the Name column, and load the data into a CSV file.
Loading Klaviyo Data into a CSV File
table1 = etl.fromdb(cnxn,sql) table2 = etl.sort(table1,'Name') etl.tocsv(table2,'campaigns_data.csv')
With the CData API Driver for Python, you can work with Klaviyo data just like you would with any database, including direct access to data in ETL packages like petl.
