Intro
Dialpad Enterprise is a cloud-based phone system, allowing you to make and receive calls and messages. Dialpad provides you an all-in-one workspace with a great connectivity. Experience truly unified communications built-in-AI, scale faster, deploy your global teams together, and get enterprise class security. Use this connector to receive data about your phone system usage, including users, offices, departments, and more. To learn more about the Dialpad API, visit their page (https://developers.dialpad.com/docs).
The Dialpad Enterprise Connector is a "Cloud App" Connector, meaning it retrieves data stored in the cloud. In the Data Center, you can access the Connector page for this and other Cloud App Connectors by clicking Cloud App in the toolbar at the top of the window.
You connect to your Dialpad Enterprise account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Dialpad Enterprise 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 Dialpad Enterprise account and create a DataSet, you must have your Dialpad API Key associated with your Enterprise account.
Connecting to Your Dialpad Enterprise Account
This section enumerates the options in the Credentials and Details panes in the Dialpad Enterprise 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 Dialpad Enterprise account. The following table describes what is needed for each field:
|
Field |
Description |
|---|---|
| API Key | Enter your Dialpad API Key for your Enterprise account. |
Once you have entered valid Dialpad Enterprise credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Dialpad Enterprise 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.

Troubleshooting
- Make sure your authentication remains valid.
- Review the configuration to make sure that all required items have been selected.
- Review the Connector history for error messages.
- In rare cases, you may be requesting too much information and reaching API limitations or timeouts. If this is the case, you can review the history of the Connector run to see the error message and duration. If this is the case, you can reduce the number of accounts that are being pulled, choose a smaller number of metrics for the report that you are pulling, or reduce the timeframe that you are trying to pull.
