Adobe Analytics Realtime Connector
Intro
Turn insights into real-time, data-driven responses with Adobe Analytics Realtime. Use Domo's Adobe Analytics Realtime Connector to retrieve data from a selected Adobe Analytics Report Suite. To learn more about the Adobe Analytics API, visit their website (https://marketing.adobe.com/developer/en_US/get-started/introduction/c-introduction ).
You connect to your Adobe Analytics account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Adobe Analytics Realtime connector user interface. General information for adding DataSets, setting update schedules, and editing DataSet information is discussed in Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector.

Connecting to Your Adobe Analytics Realtime Account
This section enumerates the options in the Credentials and Details panes in the Adobe Analytics Realtime Connector page. The components of the other panes in this page, Scheduling and Name & Describe Your DataSet, are universal across most connector types and are discussed in greater length in Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector.
Credentials Pane
This pane contains fields for entering credentials to connect to your Adobe Analytics Realtime account. The following table describes what is needed for each field:
Field |
Description |
---|---|
Client ID | Enter the client ID associated with your Adobe Analytics account. |
Client Secret | Enter the client secret associated with your Adobe Analytics account. |
Once you have entered valid Adobe Analytics Realtime credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Adobe Analytics Realtime DataSet. You can manage connector accounts in the Accounts tab in the Data Center. For more information about this tab, see Managing User Accounts for Connectors.
Details Pane
This pane contains two primary menus, Report Suite and Report Type, along with various other menus which may or may not appear depending on the report type you select.
