Guides · How to Get Your Data

Every platform is legally required to hand you a copy.

The export is already yours by law. Most people have never pressed the button because the path is buried four clicks deep and the results are a zip of nonsense. Here's the clean path for each platform — exact settings, exact links, the smallest download with all the ad signal.

Each guide opens the platform's own download page in a new tab. We never receive your data. Everything runs in your browser after you upload.

Meta · Instagram + Facebook
Instagram & Facebook

Takes about a minute to submit. Meta emails you when the ZIP is ready — usually 10–30 minutes. Walk through the screenshots below if you need the exact path. Pick JSON format, not HTML — the parser needs JSON. Same flow for both platforms; if you want Facebook too, run the export twice (once per account).

Google · Takeout
Google Takeout

Google's export has an off switch for everything. Takeout includes Gmail, Photos, Drive, Maps — which can push the archive into tens of gigabytes. None of that matters for an ad-value report. Only a few slices carry advertiser signal.

Open Takeout →

1. Go to takeout.google.com → click "Deselect all" at the top.

2. Scroll and select only: Chrome (History only), YouTube and YouTube Music (history + subscriptions), My Activity (Ads only if available), Google Finance.

3. Destination: Add to Drive · Frequency: Export once · File type: .zip · File size: 2 GB is fine.

4. Create export. Google emails you when ready — typically within an hour for the slim selection above.

Tip. Google support for the deep report is on the roadmap. Instagram first — the rest follow.
LinkedIn · Professional Data
LinkedIn

LinkedIn is the highest-CPM social platform. Its ad rates are 2× to 5× Meta's because it's B2B — advertisers pay premium to reach seniority, industry, and job-title segments. The export reveals exactly how LinkedIn categorizes you.

Request on LinkedIn →

1. The button above opens LinkedIn's download page directly.

2. Select "The works: All of the individual files we're able to make available to you".

3. Click Request archive. LinkedIn will email you a download link — usually within 24 hours.

Tip. LinkedIn deep report is on the roadmap. Instagram first.
X · Twitter Archive
X (Twitter)

X still calls it Twitter inside the archive. X's export includes every ad impression, every ad engagement, and the personalization interests X assigns to you — but only if you request the full archive. The short-form export (tweets only) skips the advertiser data entirely.

Request on X →

1. The button above opens your X data settings page (sign in if prompted).

2. Scroll to "Download an archive of your data" → click Request archive.

3. X verifies your identity. You'll get a confirmation — usually takes a few hours to a day.

4. Download within 7 days before the link expires.

Tip. If your archive contains ads-revenue-sharing.js, you're an X Premium subscriber — future Opt2In reports will detect this and adjust accordingly.
