Introducing OData for ResearchPoint in the October 2014 Release!

In ResearchPoint October 2014 release (3.18), you can use Open Data Protocol (OData) to use and share data you query on from the Information Library outside of ResearchPoint. OData is a data access protocol designed to provide standard access. This format can then be  consumed by other programs. Best of all, with OData you are using a direct link to a query in ResearchPoint. You can refresh the data as often as you need to get the latest information from ResearchPoint. No need to re-configure or export again!

To help you understand how to use OData in ResearchPoint, we've put together a short tip sheet including instructions on how to set up and copy the OData link.

 How to Use Open Data Protocol in ResearchPoint

While we put together a few ideas in the tip sheet on how we think you'll use OData in ResearchPoint, we can't wait to hear how you think OData can extend your ResearchPoint prospect research data. We hope you'll share your ideas and see how others are using OData in the Target Analytics Community!

 Other enhancements include:

•

• Batch and Import Guide Enhancements including New Helpful Videos
  
• Post to Community from In-Product Help Panel
  
• New Save As Option for Export Definitions

When you updated this past weekend, the first time you log in, the help panel opens to the "What's New" topic.
