Intro

Cloudability is a cloud cost management platform that improves visibility, optimization, governance and more across cloud environments. Get data about budgets, business mapping, containers, vendors, cost, and estimates for better cloud management and team empowerment with Domo’s Cloudability V3 Connector. Domo connects directly to Cloudability and delivers the information you need in real-time visualizations that make analysis easier. Combine your Cloudability data with all your information on Domo to ensure you have all the analytical data available at fingertips that you need to drive your strategic growth plans. To learn more about the Cloudability API, visit their page (http://developers.cloudability.com/). You connect to your Cloudability account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Cloudability V3 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.
