LKQD Connector

Intro

LKQD is a feature-rich single tag solution capable of delivering Flash and HTML5 video ads. To learn more about the LKQD API, visit their page (https://wiki.lkqd.com/display/API/LKQD+API;jsessionid=5ADD8B5B83CE27031FAB837DAEAF0E49).

You connect to your LKQD account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the LKQD connector user interface. General information for adding DataSets, setting update schedules, and editing DataSet information is discussed in Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector.

Prerequisites

To connect to your LKQD account and create a DataSet, you must have the following:

An LKQD secret key ID
An LKQD secret key

If you need help obtaining these credentials, please reach out to your LKQD account representative.

Connecting to Your LKQD Account

This section enumerates the options in the Credentials and Details panes in the LKQD Connector page. The components of the other panes in this page, Scheduling and Name & Describe Your DataSet, are universal across most connector types and are discussed in greater length in Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector.

Credentials Pane

This pane contains fields for entering credentials to connect to your LKQD account. The following table describes what is needed for each field:

Field	Description
LKQD Secret Key ID	Enter your LKQD secret key ID.
LKQD Secret Key	Enter your LKQD secret key.

Once you have entered valid LKQD credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new LKQD DataSet. You can manage connector accounts in the Accounts tab in the Data Center. For more information about this tab, see Managing User Accounts for Connectors.

Details Pane

This pane contains various menus in which you can configure your LKQD report.

Menu	Description
Time Dimension	Select how you want the data in your report to be aggregated.
Start Hour	Select the desired start hour for the report.
End Hour	Select the desired end hour for the report.
Report Type	Select up to three report type dimensions for the report.
Duration	Select whether you want to pull data for a specific date or a date range.
Report Date	Select whether the report data is for a specific date or for a relative number of days back from today.
Select Specific Date	Select the date for the report.
Days Back	Enter the number of past days that should appear in the report.
Start Date	Specify whether the first date in your date range is a specific or relative date. You select the last date in your range in End Date.
End Date	Specify whether the second date in your date range is a specific or relative date. You select the first date in your range in Start Date.
Select Specific Start Date	Select the first date in your date range.
Select Specific End Date	Select the second date in your date range.
Days Back to Start From	Enter the number of the farthest day back that should be represented in the report. Combine with Days Back to End At to create a range of represented days. For example, if you entered 10 for Days Back to Start From and 5 for Days Back to End At, the report would contain data for 10 days ago up until 5 days ago.
Days Back to End At	Enter the number of the most recent day back that should be represented in the report. Combine with Days Back to Start From to create a range of represented days. For example, if you entered 10 for Days Back to Start From and 5 for Days Back to End At, the report would contain data for 10 days ago up until 5 days ago.
