BellaDati allows you to connect and analyze data from FaceBook easily. The connection wizard is provided.

Please perform the following steps to connect to FaceBook:

Authentication

You have to grant BellaDati access to the statistics of your FaceBook account.

BellaDati Social Analytics App will access the Page Insights data only. Aggregated data are stored in BellaDati according to the Facebook API terms of use. Authentication is provided by Facebook servers thus we do not store your login fields.

Page And Column Selection

  1. Select the desired page: Enter the URL of the desired FaceBook page (this is usually a product or company page).
  2. Select the requested columns via Import settings.

Data Source Settings and modifications

  • Date from and to (dd.MM.yyyy): Sets time period within to import data (see entering date/time parameters section below).
  • Reset import columns settings

Entering date/time parameters

  • you can enter time (date) absolutely in two different formats: dd.MM.yyyy (e.g. 1.12.2010), or yyyy-MM-dd (e.g. 2010-12-01)
  • it's also possible to enter date relatively:
    • now - represents actual date
    • actualyear - represents the first day of actual year (1.1.20XX). For example actualyear selected on 21.9.2010 represents date 1.1.2010
    • actualquarter - represents the first day of actual quarter (1.1.20XX, 1.4.20XX, 1.7.20XX, 1.10.20XX). For example actualquarter selected on 21.9.2010 represents date 1.7.2010
    • actualmonth - represents the first day of actual month (1.1.20XX, 1.2.20XX, ...). For example actaulmonth selected in 21.9.2010 represents date 1.9.2010
    • actualweek - represents first day of actual week (Monday). For example actualweek selected on 21.9.2010 represents date 20.9.2010 (Monday of this week in calendar)

    • relative and absolute enterig of date can be adjusted by operators using this syntax: date +|- n[d|w|m|q|y], where n is integer, d represents day, w represents week, m represents month q represents quartal and y represents year. We can for example define time in this way:  actualyear + 2m -4d. Today is 21.9.2010, so this value represents 1.1.2010 + 2 months - 4 days, which means date 25.2.2010.
