Act-On Connector

Intro

Act-On is a marketing automation platform designed to coordinate inbound and outbound marketing campaigns. Use the Act-On Connector to gain insight into campaign details, campaign effectiveness, and reach so you can assess whether your inbound/outbound efforts are lining up and producing successful campaigns. To learn more about the Act-On API, visit their page (https://developer.act-on.com/documentation/).

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

Connecting to Your Act-On Account

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

Field	Description
Username	Enter the username for your Act-On account.
Password	Enter the password for your Act-On account.

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