RevContent Connector
Intro
RevContent is a content recommendation network with widgets that can be integrated with all types of blogs and websites to enhance traffic and increase revenue. Use Domo's RevContent connector to track widget performance. To learn more about the RevContent API, visit their page (https://api.revcontent.io/docs/stats/).
You connect to your RevContent account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the RevContent 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 RevContent account and create a DataSet, you must have the following:
-
A RevContent client ID
-
A RevContent client secret
For information about obtaining these credentials, see https://faq.revcontent.com/customer/...rs-publishers-.
Connecting to Your RevContent Account
This section enumerates the options in the Credentials and Details panes in the RevContent 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.

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