Importing Historical Data into Social Connect
About Importing Historical Data into Social Connect
You can import historical mention data into Social Connect. As Social Connect only ingests new mentions once a profile has been connected, it’s possible to miss mentions that were created before you set up the connection. If you still want to action those mentions via Social Connect, you can import those historical mentions into one of your existing topics.
At this time, you can only import historical mention data for Twitter and Facebook.
Attention: There is an associated cost with importing historical data. A quote will be given to you after you provide some information about the data you are requesting. Please contact your XM Success Manager with any questions.
