Intro
Sysomos Heartbeat is a service that tracks social media accounts (Twitter, Facebook, blogs, etc) and records information about posts, usage, followers, etc. Use Domo's Sysomos Heartbeat connector to gain insights into how the posts in those services are used, seen or shared. To learn more about the Sysomos Heartbeat API, visit their page (https://sysomos.com/services/api/).
You connect to your Sysomos Heartbeat account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Sysomos Heartbeat connector user interface.
