Within Creative Force, there are multiple ways for you to connect with a Data source and using Brandquad is one of the method.
To create a Data source, go to your Studio settings -> Data sources then click ‘Add’.
After clicking ‘Add’ you will be prompted to the setup dialog, please contact your IT team to have the needed information.
Frequency: You can decide how often the data source gets updated automatically. It can be either Hourly - Daily - Weekly - Monthly. If you choose ‘monthly’ you will have to decide which day of the month. If you choose ‘weekly’ you will have to decide which day of the week.
Day of weeks: The day that the data gets updated.
Hour in day: The hour in the day that the data gets updated.

After finishing setting up the data source, you can assign the data source to a client here.
