Discourse is an open-source Internet forum and mailing list management software application. By adding your Discourse account directly into the Sprinklr platform, you can extend your brand's audience and engage with even more users from a single, unified platform. Once Discourse has been enabled in your environment, you can add your Discourse on Sprinklr just like other accounts. 

To Add a Discourse Account

1. Click the New Tab icon . Under the Sprinklr Social tab, click Owned Social Accounts within Listen.

2. In the Accounts (Settings) window, click Add Account in the top right corner. 

3. In the Add Account window, search and select Discourse from the list of channels.

4. In the Add Discourse Account window, enter the required details for your new account. For more information, see Discourse Account Addition — Field Descriptions.

5. Click Save in the bottom right corner to add the account details. Next, you'll be able to edit your account details and permission the account.
