Jive Connector

Intro

Jive integrates the functionality of online communities, microblogging, social networking, discussion forums, blogs, wikis, and IM under one unified user interface. Use Domo's Jive connector to retrieve lists of activities, announcements, people, and places. To learn more about the Jive API, visit their page (https://developers.jivesoftware.com/...est/index.html).

You connect to your Jive account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Jive 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.

Prerequisites

To connect to your Jive account and create a DataSet, you must have the following:

Your Jive username and password
Your Jive URL (e.g. https://community.jivesoftware.com)

Connecting to Your Jive Account

This section enumerates the options in the Credentials and Details panes in the Jive 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 Jive account. The following table describes what is needed for each field:

Field	Description
Username	Enter the username for your Jive account.
Password	Enter the password for your Jive account.
Jive URL	Enter your Jive URL (e.g. https://community.jivesoftware.com)

Once you have entered valid Jive credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Jive 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 a primary Reports menu, along with various other menus which may or may not appear depending on the report type you select.
