Connect to Progress Digital Experience Cloud

NOTE: Sitefinity Digital Experience Cloud (DEC) was renamed to Sitefinity Insight as a part of the Sitefinity 13.0 release. However, Sitefinity CMS and its documentation prior to version 13.0 continue using the former name - Digital Experience Cloud.

You connect each Sitefinity CMS instance separately and to a specific data center. Each data center can represent more than one data source. For example, a data center Sitefinity CMS may represent the data sources Sitefinity.com and the Telerik CRM.

IMPORTANT: To ensure communication between Digital Sitefinity Cloud and Sitefinity CMS is not restricted and consequently tracking and personalization are functioning, you need to modify your system’s firewall settings. Make sure the outbound internet connectivity of the Sitefinity CMS server is not restricted for the following addresses:

To connect:

  1. Navigate to Administration » Connector for Progress Sitefinity Digital Experience Cloud.
  2. In the Data center API Key field, enter the API key of the data center you are connecting to.
    The Progress Sitefinity Digital Experience Cloud connector uses this key to report user action to the intended data center.

    NOTE: You can find and copy your API key from your data center dashboard » API Key tab page. For more information, see API key.

  3. Under Connection details, enter the following:
    1. Connection name
      You can enter a name, for example, the domain name of the site that is your data source. This connection name is used in Progress Sitefinity Digital Experience Cloud to distinguish data from this site from data coming from other sources. For example, if your site is telerik.com, you can enter telerik as connection name.

      NOTE: Use up to 32 characters. Use only Latin letters, numbers, and “_”, “-”, and “.”

    2. Telerik username
      Enter the credentials of your Telerik account. Progress Sitefinity Digital Experience Cloud uses these credentials to make API calls to the server.

    3. Telerik password
  4. Click Connect.

As a result, you can see the connector details and usage statistics.
