Teckst Connector

Intro

Teckst is a texting platform that allows customer service teams to two-way text with customers instead of using phone calls and emails. Use Domo's Teckst connector to retrieve metrics for issues and messages. To learn more about the Teckst API, visit their page (https://api.teckst.com/v1/docs/).

You connect to your Teckst account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Teckst 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 Teckst account and create a DataSet, you must have your Teckst username and password.

Connecting to Your Teckst Account

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

Field	Description

Password	Enter the password for your Teckst account.

Once you have entered valid Teckst credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Teckst 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.
