How to connect Adobe Analytics to Databox
In order to access your Client ID and Client Secret, you must first create an Adobe Analytics OAuth Client and generate a Client ID and Client Secret.
To create an Adobe Analytics OAuth Client, follow the steps below:
- Default redirect URI: https://connect.databox.com/callback
- Redirect URI pattern: https://connect\\.databox\\.com/callback
Pro Tip: Your client has a Client ID (API Key) and a Client Secret. These will be needed to get your authentification code and generate access tokens.
At this point, the connection process is complete and Databox has been connected to Adobe Analytics.
What Adobe Analytics permissions do you need to create an Adobe Analytics OAuth client?
To connect Adobe Analytics to Databox, the user has to have System Admin or Developers permissions for their organization.

How much historical data is synced when you first connect Adobe Analytics to Databox?
When you connect a new Adobe Analytics Data Source in Databox, 3 months worth of historical data is initially synced.
Certain Metrics may have more or less historical data available. For more information about the amount of historical data available for a specific Metric, please contact our Support Team at help@databox.com.
Pro Tip: Once your Adobe Analytics Data Source is connected and actively syncing data, we store the data that's collected in our own database. This allows us to accumulate more data over time as more data syncs are made so that you can report on more historical Adobe Analytics data in your Databox reports. Learn more here.
What time zone does Adobe Analytics data sync in?
Adobe Analytics data is synced in the time zone set in the Adobe Analytics Account. For example, if your Adobe Analytics Account time zone is set as EST, your Adobe Analytics data will sync with Databox in EST.
How to access pre-built Adobe Analytics Templates
Pro Tip: Once the Databoard is available on the Databoards page, it is completely disconnected from the public Template. Therefore, you can further customize this Databoard to meet your specific needs using the Designer.
