4] On the BirdEye data source, click Connect.
5] The Add Account popup appears.

11] To assign it to a client, on the right side choose a client from the existing client dropdown (as shown) or create a new client to assign it to by typing in the box at the right.
12] Edit General Settings, Additional Information, and Primary Contact Information for the client record as needed and then click Assign Client.
13] After the data source is connected and data is assigned, you can either click Fetch My Data or wait until the regular data fetch occurs for data to start flowing into your dashboard.
Congratulations! You have connected your BirdEye data to your TapClicks client records.
What’s Next?
For new assignments between a data source and TapClicks client records, an initial data fetch will occur. Each data source has a different lookback period which determines the amount of historical data that is fetched (measured in months, weeks, or days). To view the lookback period for this Data Source and the status of your data fetches as a whole, click Data Load Status in the Data Management menu on the left side of your dashboard. For more information about Data Load Status, please see this article.
