Intro

comScore is an Internet analytics company providing marketing data and analytics to many of the world’s largest enterprises, agencies, and publishers. Use Domo’s Comscore MMX connector to pull Media Metrix reports about key measures, media trends, target trends, and more. The comScore 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. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Comscore MMX connector user interface.
