Watch this video to learn how to easily connect and activate your data sources through Nugit's Integrations Page.

Step-By-Step: Connect a New Datasource

  1. From the Homepage, click on the burger icon in the left corner of the top menu bar and then click on Integrations

  2. Hit the + New Integration button.
    You will see the list of platforms that are included in your subscription.

  3. Mouse over the one you want to add and click Connect. Enter the account credentials, make sure to allow all permissions requested for, and you're done. Repeat to add more integrations.

  4. Once you have connected a new account, head over to the Data Factory tab to search for and activate the relevant data sources.

  5. Click on the Activate button on the right-hand side to activate the datasource.

  6. Once activated, this button changes into Settings. Click the Settings button on your activated data source and assign the to the group(s) that it belongs in. You can select multiple data sources by ticking the box on the left and clicking on Assign to a group in the top right corner. 

  • When you connect an account to Nugit, all datasources available in this account will be visible in the Data Factory. You can hide the datasources you don't wish to see. 

  • Be sure to Allow all permissions requested for in the access, as this authorises Nugit to pull the data from the 3rd party API for visualisation purposes. Not granting permissions will result in a datasource connection failure.

  • The initial backfill time depends on the platform & the size of the data we need to backfill. It can take anywhere between a few minutes to a few hours.
