Connecting Klipfolio to Flurry

You can set up a connection between Klipfolio and your Flurry data to display your mobile analytics metrics on a dashboard.

What options do I have for visualizing my Flurry data?

Create data visualizations based on pre-built options or build your own. The choice is yours!

Pre-built by Klipfolio

Take advantage of our pre-built data sources to gather the data most meaningful to you.

  • Flurry pre-built data sources: Data sources provide the foundation for Klip building, so we suggest you create a data source as a first step (before building Klips and adding them to your dashboard). Our pre-built data sources focus on the most sought-after Flurry data and are found on the Service Connectors page, available from this link or from your list of data sources. When you select a service connector from this page, the data source for that service is automatically added.

Custom-built by you

Taking the time to learn how to create your own data sources and Klips unlocks your data and enables you to control, manipulate, and transform it, leading you to unprecedented insights into your business.

  • Custom data sources: When you create a custom data source, you can either use the pre-built data source as a starting point from which to write your own query or you can write your own queries from the ground up and build a data source from scratch. You create custom-built data sources in the Service Connectors page, accessible from this link or from your list of data sources.
  • Custom Klips: Using our Klip Editor, you can construct and manipulate your data, including integrating multiple data sources, to produce unique, custom-built data visualizations. You create custom Klips from either your list of Klips or your Dashboard.

Regardless of whether you choose pre-built, custom-built, or a combination of both, before you can start building Klips and dashboards you need to connect to Flurry data in Klipfolio.

How do I connect to Flurry data in Klipfolio?

To connect your Flurry data to Klipfolio, you will need your Access Token.

To get the right data from Flurry, you use your Flurry Access Token in the queries provided by Klipfolio or in your own query when building data sources.

How do I find my Flurry Access Token?

To find your Flurry Access Token:

  1. Log in to Flurry.
  2. Click Admin (wrench icon) in the left navigation bar.
  3. Select Manage > Users.
  4. Click + Programmatic User and enter your credentials to authenticate.
  5. Click Login.
  6. Either accept the default Programmatic Account Name or, optionally, create your own.
  7. Click Create Account.
  8. Copy your Access Token into Klipfolio.

    Note: While you can view your programmatic account information under Manage Users at any time, your Access Token is only displayed once. If you forget your Access Token, you may need to regenerate it. From the Manage Users page, click the pencil icon to navigate to the Assign Feature for Programmatic Account page. Click Regenerate Token and copy the new token.

  2. Click Get data.
  3. Ensure this is the data you’re looking for and, optionally, select the checkbox to Model your data. Learn more about modelling your data source here.

How do I create a Flurry custom Klip?

You create custom Klips from either your list of Klips or your Dashboard. You choose a data visualization format, for example, a pie chart, gauge, or table, and decide whether you want to use an existing data source or create a new one. In the Klip Editor, there are limitless opportunities to modify, relate, and display your data. See the following related articles for more information and get building!

More about Flurry's API and queries

If you take the time to learn your service’s API to create queries for the data you want, your possibilities are endless. Here’s a quick overview video on APIs and Klipfolio:

Klipfolio API's 101

If you need assistance using APIs, enlist a data analyst or developer.

Use the Flurry API Console to build and test your queries before you use them to bring data into Klipfolio.

Refer to the Flurry API documentation to discover more data requests.

See the reference table below for API related information and sample queries.

API Limits and Notes

 The maximum interval supported is 90 days in one single request. To gather data for longer periods, you must submit multiple queries. For example, to get data for the last 180 days, you would submit one query for data from 180 to 90 days ago and a second query for data from 89 days ago to today.

Date Format

Example date format:
