Follow these steps to add your StackAdapt data to the reports you create with Supermetrics.

If you need to connect this data source to one of our data warehouse or cloud storage destinations, explore our data warehouse and cloud storage setup guides.

Before you begin

You'll need an API key to give Supermetrics permission to pull your data. Contact your StackAdapt account manager to create this key.

Make sure you've installed the Supermetrics add-on before you connect.

Open a new Google Sheets file.
Navigate to Extensions → Supermetrics → Launch sidebar to open Supermetrics.
Click Create new query.
Under Data source, select StackAdapt.
Click Start.
Enter your API key, and click Start.
Select the accounts you'd like to use in your reporting.

Make sure you've connected Supermetrics to Looker Studio before following the steps below.

Open the Supermetrics Looker Studio data source gallery.
Navigate to StackAdapt and click Start free trial.
You'll see two buttons that read Authorize. If you're using Supermetrics for the first time, click the left-hand one and log in with the Google Account you use with Supermetrics.
Once that's done, or if you've done it before, click the right-hand Authorize button (under "StackAdapt requires authorization to connect to data").
Select a team that has access to the account you want to connect.
Choose to make this connection shared or private.
Click Start.
Enter your API key, and click Start.
Select the accounts you'd like to use in your reporting.
Scroll down to the bottom of the page. To create a report with our template, select Use report template for new reports. To create a blank report, deselect this option.
In the pane's top right, click Connect.
Click Create report.
Click Add to report.
