# Eloqua connection guide

This guide contains all permissions and requirements for connecting your Eloqua data to Supermetrics.

<meta charset="utf-8">

You can connect to data sources from the [Data sources page on the Supermetrics Hub](https://hub.supermetrics.com/token-management). On the Hub, you can also [share an authentication link](https://docs.supermetrics.com/v1/docs/how-to-connect-to-data-sources-from-supermetrics-hub#share-authentication-link) to connect to a data source you don't have direct access to.

After you connect to the data source on the Hub, you can use the data source connection in [all available destinations](/docs/eloqua-connection-guide#connection-instructions).

## Required permissions

You will need your Eloqua **username**, **password**, and **site name** to connect to Eloqua.

The site name can be found in your Eloqua account by clicking on the top right account box and then copying the site name underneath your account name.

## Query types

Query types define which metrics and dimensions are available. You need to select one of the following query types when pulling data:

- **Campaign analysis**: Retrieve insights on your Eloqua campaigns.
- **Campaign form submissions**: Retrieve insights on your Eloqua form submissions on a campaign level.

## Connection instructions

When connecting to Eloqua, you need to enter your username, password, and site name.

1. Select the Eloqua data source [on the Supermetrics Hub](https://hub.supermetrics.com/token-management) or in the data destination.
2. Enter your Eloqua **username**, **password**, and **site name**.
3. If prompted, choose to make this connection [shared or private](https://docs.supermetrics.com/docs/about-shared-and-private-connections).
4. Click **Start**.
5. In your data destination, select the account to pull data from and a query type, if prompted.
