Intro

Adobe Analytics helps you create a holistic view of your business by turning customer interactions into actionable insights. Domo’s Adobe Analytics V2 connector allows you to retrieve data through prebuilt reports. You can then combine metrics with data from CRM, POS, or any other system to make faster, better-informed business decisions. To learn more about the Adobe Analytics API, visit their website (https://adobedocs.github.io/analytics-2.0-apis/#/ ). You connect to the Adobe Analytics API in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Adobe Analytics v2 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.
