# Connect Taboola to Vortex IQ

> Connect Taboola to Vortex IQ for 72 KPI cards, plus cross-platform Vortex Mind diagnostics.

Connecting Taboola to Vortex IQ gives the AI OS a live read on your Taboola data, feeding the Nerve Centre dashboard, Vortex Mind diagnostics, and Ask Viq.

## What data Vortex IQ reads from Taboola

* **AdAccount**
* **Campaign**
* **AdCreative**

## How to connect

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Connected Sources">
    In your Vortex IQ workspace, go to **Settings → Connected Sources**. You need Admin role in the workspace to connect sources.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Find the Taboola card">
    Locate the Taboola connector card and click **+ Connect**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorise with Taboola">
    You are redirected to Taboola's own authorisation page. Sign in and approve the requested permissions.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Return to Vortex IQ">
    Taboola redirects you back to Vortex IQ once authorisation completes. The connector card flips to Connected automatically; no credentials are copied by hand.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Wait for the first data pull">
    KPI cards begin populating once the first sync completes. Timing depends on the Taboola API response size and rate limits.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Available KPI cards

Vortex IQ populates **72** Nerve Centre cards from your Taboola data. See the [Taboola KPI card reference](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/taboola) for the full list with definitions, calculations, and sentiment bands.

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Credential verification fails">
    Re-check each value against the Taboola developer console for typos or trailing whitespace. If a scope or permission is missing, Taboola will typically return a 401 or 403 on the verification call rather than a generic failure.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Cards show no data after connecting">
    Allow time for the first sync to complete; large accounts can take longer. If cards are still empty after an hour, disconnect and reconnect to confirm the credentials were saved correctly.
