Mavenlink Connector

Intro

Mavenlink provides software and services for advanced project management, task collaboration, resource allocation, work management and professional services automation. To learn more about the Mavenlink API, visit their page (http://developer.mavenlink.com/).

You connect to your Mavenlink account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Mavenlink 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 Mavenlink account and create a DataSet, you must have a Mavenlink username and password.

Connecting to Your Mavenlink Account

This section enumerates the options in the Credentials and Details panes in the Mavenlink 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

The Domo Mavenlink connector uses OAuth to connect, so there is no need to enter credentials within Domo. Click Connect (or select Add Account if you have existing Mavenlink accounts in Domo) to open the Mavenlink OAuth screen where you can enter your Mavenlink credentials. Once you have entered valid Mavenlink credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Mavenlink 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.

Note: If you are already logged into Mavenlink when you connect in Domo, you are authenticated automatically when you click Add account. If you want to connect to an account that is different from the one you are logged into, you must first log out of Mavenlink.

Once you have entered valid Mavenlink credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Mavenlink 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.
