Eco-Counter connector

The Eco-Counter connector retrieves count data from Eco-Counter's Eco-Visio platform. It creates a dataset with records about counting sites and counters.

Using the Eco-Counter connector, you can retrieve two types of data:

• Eco-Counter Data provides data about a counter, including the counting Site ID where the counter is installed, etc.

• Eco-Counter Sites provides data about counting sites, including site position, installation date, etc.

This connector is not available by default. Please contact Opendatasoft for the activation of this connector on a given Opendatasoft domain.

Before you begin, retrieve your Eco-Counter API key.

Note that the connector uses Eco-Counter API v2. If you previously used the connector with an API v1 key, you must replace the key.
