Getting your data

 Looking to free your ServiceM8 data? Good, you’ve come to the right place. ## Getting connected 1. Select **Connections** from the main menu 2. Click the **New** button 3. Select **ServiceM8** 4. Give it a name (this is especially useful if you’re creating multiple ServiceM8 connections) 5. Authorise the connection by following the prompts to sign in to your ServiceM8 account 6. Done. Now watch as SyncHub begins retrieving your historical data. To connect multiple ServiceM8 accounts, simply follow the steps above for each one. Just make sure to check that your SyncHub plan allows for multiple API connections. ## Available endpoints SyncHub works by regularly querying each endpoint in the ServiceM8 API, checking for new and modified data. For each endpoint SyncHub produces a corresponding data table in your reporting tool. These are the endpoints currently available: - Asset - Asset type - Attachment - Client - Client contact - Form - Job - Job category - Job checklist item - Job contact - Job material - Job payment - Job queue - Location - Material - Note - Staff - Supplier - Tax rate - Asset field value - Job check list item staff assigned Need more data? No problem, please [let us know](https://www.synchub.io/contact) and we'll see if we can add it. Or if you're a data nerd like us, feel free to check out the ServiceM8 API documentation to see what’s available. ### What data does SyncHub take from ServiceM8? SyncHub extracts the endpoints above from ServiceM8, and stores it in your data warehouse. ### What data does SyncHub create or modify in ServiceM8? Nothing. SyncHub is read-only and never sends data back to ServiceM8. ## Building your reports SyncHub stores data in a relational database optimized for reporting. This means that reporting from your favourite reporting tool is as easy as using their standard _database connector_.
