# How to connect

> How to connect the Naver Blog data source to Adriel: enter Naver ID and password credentials with the required security settings, then verify data.

Naver Blog is Naver's blogging platform in South Korea. Connecting it brings blog-level engagement (visits, unique visitors, impressions, followers, neighbors, and post count) and post-level rankings by views, likes, and comments into Adriel dashboards.

## Before you connect

The following are required:

* A Naver account, identified by its **login ID** or **phone number**. Email-format IDs (containing `@`) are not accepted.
* Two-step verification **disabled** on the Naver account, in Naver security settings.
* Logins from other regions **allowed** (Seoul), in Naver security settings. Naver's default region-block behavior otherwise blocks the connection.

## Connect Naver Blog

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enter the Naver ID and Password">
    On the **Data Sources** page, search for **Naver Blog** and select it. Enter the **ID** — the Naver login ID or phone number (for example, `adriel01`) — and the **Password** for that account.

    In Naver security settings, disable two-step verification and allow logins from other regions (Seoul) before connecting; the connection cannot complete otherwise.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Name the data source (optional)">
    Enter a **Name** to label this data source in Adriel. If left blank, a default name is used.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Submit">
    Click **Submit** to complete the connection. The initial sync runs in the background, and blog data appears once the first daily cycle finishes.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What gets imported

The connector imports blog-level statistics (visits, unique visitors, impressions, followers, neighbors, and post count) and post-ranking tables (top posts by views, likes, and comments). Blog statistics accumulate as a daily time series, while ranking tables are replaced on every sync.

For the complete list of metrics, breakdowns, refresh cadence, and limits, see the [Naver Blog data reference](/data-sources/g-n/naver-blog/data-reference).

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Connection fails or the data source disconnects">
    The connection requires two Naver security settings. Confirm that two-step verification is disabled and that logins from other regions (Seoul) are allowed. If either is not met, the login is blocked and the data source is disconnected. Update the settings in the Naver account and reconnect.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The Naver ID is not accepted">
    Email-format IDs (containing `@`) are rejected before login. Use the Naver login ID or the phone number registered on the account instead.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Login is blocked by a verification prompt">
    Naver may present a CAPTCHA or a device-confirmation prompt during login. The connector attempts to clear these automatically, but repeated blocks can prevent a connection. Confirm the credentials and the security settings above, then reconnect.
  </Accordion>
