This guide applies to both Adobe Analytics and Adobe Analytics 2.0.
About Adobe authentication
Adobe is deprecating the service account (JWT) login option to Adobe Analytics and creating new service account tokens (JWT) to log in to Adobe Analytics is no longer possible. See Adobe's guide to start using OAuth Server-to-Server authentication instead.
This guide will help you create the OAuth Server-to-Server credentials you need to connect your Adobe Analytics data to Supermetrics.
Prerequisites
Only people with System administrator or Developer user roles in an Adobe Analytics account can add OAuth Server-to-Server credentials.
You also need explicit access granted to see the report suites, reports, segments, and custom fields. Visit Adobe's help center to learn how to change user roles.
Adobe Analytics and Adobe Analytics 2.0 don't share certificates. If you're using both of these data sources with Supermetrics, you'll need to create an OAuth Server-to-Server credential for each one separately.
Instructions
Step 1: Create a OAuth Server-to-Server credentials
Follow Adobe Analytics' detailed instructions to set up your OAuth Server-to-Server credentials.
Take note
When you complete these steps, Adobe will offer a series of credentials. Make careful note of these — they're essential for connecting Adobe Analytics to Supermetrics.
- Client ID
- Client secret
- Credential name
Step 2: Connect to Supermetrics
Once you've created your credentials, you're ready to connect it to Supermetrics.
- Open Supermetrics in your destination.
- Under Data sources, select Adobe Analytics.
- Choose Connect with OAuth Server-to-Server.
- Enter the client ID, client secret, and credential name generated during the setup process.
- Click Start.
- Once the credentials are validated, click Create to finalize the connection.
