Intro

With the DataSet Copy Unload connector, you can export data from Domo to your DataSet located at a specific instance. This connector allows you to connect with your Domo Developer account credentials (client id and client secret). You export your data in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the DataSet Copy Unload 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.
Note: The owner of a writeback dataset must also be an owner or co-owner of the input dataset.

Prerequisites

To configure this connector, you will need your Domo Client ID and Client Secret. To create your Domo client ID and client secret:
  1. Log into the Domo developer account.
  2. In the top right corner under My Account click New Client.
  3. Enter the application name and description.
  4. Provide the application scope by selecting the checkboxes for Data and User.
  5. Click Create.
  6. Once you have created a client, you can manage the client by clicking on Manage Client.
Your Client Secret will appear in the Manage Client section.
