Get Started with Data Scout

Welcome to the Data Scout module in the IQ Hub! Data Scout collects and delivers data from competitor sites. With Data Scout you are able to retain complete control over every job. You will stay current on the market landscape with the data you want, the data you need, how and when you need it.

Data Scout has six sections:

1. Results: After Data Scout uses a search to retrieve data from a target site, you may access the data from the Results tab. For more information on the Results tab, click here.
2. Jobs: The Jobs tab houses your library of jobs in a table. The table gives you insight into if the job is scheduled, when the job was created, when the job was last executed, and the last run quality of the job.
3. Active: All jobs that are currently running can be viewed in the Active tab.
