This guide contains all permissions and requirements for connecting your Impact data to Supermetrics.
You can connect to data sources from the Data sources page on the Supermetrics Hub. On the Hub, you can also share an authentication link to connect to a data source you don't have direct access to.
After you connect to the data source on the Hub, you can use the data source connection in all available destinations.
Required permissions
Before using the Impact connector, you need a copy of your account SID and auth token.
To get the account SID and auth token:
- Log in to the Impact.com platform.
- From the bottom left, navigate to Settings.
- Under Technical, navigate to API.
- Under the API Access tab, you can find your Account SID and Auth Token.
Query types
Query types define what sort of metrics and dimensions are available. You need to select one of the following query types when pulling data:
- Performance by Ad / Partner / Date: Get performance data aggregated on an ad, partner, and daily level.
- Performance by Partner group: Get performance data aggregated on the partner group level. This report only returns data for Partners that are part of a Partner group.
- Performance by Country: Get performance data aggregated on the country level.
- Advanced action listing: List all actions and their details generated in a selected date range.
