Spredfast Conversations Connector

Intro

Spredfast is a social software platform which allows large companies to manage their online social media presences, build social media campaigns, and analyze social media performance. Use Domo's Spredfast Conversations connector to retrieve analytics data and other information from Spredfast. To learn more about the Spredfast Conversations API, visit their Github page (https://github.com/spredfast/Conversations-api-client).

You connect to your Spredfast account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Spredfast Conversations 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 Spredfast account and create a DataSet, you must have the following:

The email address associated with your Spredfast account
Your Spredfast password

Whitelisting the Domo Application for Your Spredfast Account

Before the Domo Spredfast Conversations Connector can successfully connect to your Spredfast account, a ticket must be submitted with Spredfast Support (contact info available here: https://www.spredfast.com/support ) to request whitelisting of the Domo Application for your Spredfast account.

Once you have contacted Spredfast Support and they have whitelisted the Domo application for your account, you may proceed with the steps below.

Connecting to Your Spredfast Account

This section enumerates the options in the Credentials and Details panes in the Spredfast Conversations 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

The Domo Spredfast Conversations connector uses OAuth to connect, so there is no need to enter credentials within Domo. Click Connect (or select Add Account if you have existing Spredfast accounts in Domo) to open the Spredfast OAuth screen where you can enter your Spredfast credentials. Once you have entered valid Spredfast credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Spredfast Conversations 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.

Note: If you are already logged into Spredfast when you connect in Domo, you are authenticated automatically when you click Add account. If you want to connect to an account that is different from the one you are logged into, you must first log out of Spredfast.

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.
