AdGear Connector
Intro
AdGear is an online advertising technology company that provides a full stack of real-time advertising products. Use Domo's AdGear connector to retrieve reports from AdGear's Console and Trader APIs. To learn more about these APIs, visit their pages (https://adgear.atlassian.net/wiki/sp...nsole+REST+API and https://adgear.atlassian.net/wiki/sp...rader+REST+API).
You connect to your AdGear account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the AdGear 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.

To generate an API key, do the following:
-

-
Click your username in the top-right corner of the user interface.
-
Check the checkbox reading Enable HTTP Digest API?
-
Save.
An API key should now be automatically generated.
