An account is your access point for Analytics. One or more Analytics accounts can belong to an organization.

A view is your access point for reports; a defined view of data from a property. You give users access to a view so they can see the reports based on that view's data. A property can contain one or more views.

Parameters

Parameters contains the list of parameters and metrics available for export. Specify the parameters required for uploading.

As a result, Renta will create the table that will contain the selected parameters data. The order of the selected parameters in the Rentas interface will match to the order of the table columns.

Date range type

Choose the inserting period. You can specify any historical time interval.
To select the necessary time, enter the date from which you want to start uploading data in the "From" field, then enter the end date in the "To" field.
If you want the data in the table to be updated daily and supplemented with new days, then enter “Yesterday” in the “To” field.

Integration name

There is an auto-generated name for your integration and here you can edit it as much as you like.

Both Cyrillic and Latin are permitted, but not more than 100 symbols.

The integration name is displayed on the Integration List page.

Table name

There is an auto-generated name for your table and here you can edit it as much as you like.

Only Latin is permitted, with numbers and “_” symbol.

Update time

You can specify any update time that you need. Users choose early morning integration updates most often, for example 5 AM.

In that case, your integration will update in the period from 5 AM to 6 AM.

Integrations are updated according to the time zone selected in your profile settings.

Overwrite period

The data overwrite period is a retrospective update of data for the selected period.
For instance you choose the overwrite period “Last 7 days” - it means that all data for the last 7 days will be deleted and inserted once again with updated data.
Note: this tab appears only if parameters like Day/Date/Time Period etc have been chosen.
