Understanding the Demandbase Database

  • Updated

The Database page provides access to all account, people, opportunity, and activity records in Demandbase, regardless of their Engagement Points. Unlike the Analytics Dashboard, the Database includes records even if they have no engagement.

Database records come from multiple sources, including integrations, CSV imports, and Demandbase.
