# Attentive: Connect the account

## Step 1: Create an Attentive SFTP account

We connect directly to [Attentive's data feed](https://docs.attentive.com/pages/developer-guides/sftp-solution/attentive-sftp-data-feeds/), so you'll need an SFTP account.

If you do not have an Attentive SFTP account, please request one by reaching out to your Attentive Client Strategy Representative or reaching out to their White Glove team ([whiteglove@attentivemobile.com](mailto:whiteglove@attentivemobile.com))

If you're not sure if you have an account:

1. Log into your Attentive account and navigate to the **Settings** tab
2. Look for **SFTP Account Management**.

If you do not see **SFTP Account Management**, this means you do not have an account and you'll need to create one with their team.

## Step 2: Create Permanent Password

If you're creating a new account, you'll likely be issued a temporary password. Please create a **Permanent Password** to ensure our connection doesn't break due to an expired password.

Directions from [Attentive Docs](https://docs.attentive.com/pages/developer-guides/sftp-solution/connect-to-attentive-sftp/):

1. Log in to Attentive and navigate to the **Settings** tab.
2. Select **SFTP Account Management** from the menu.<br />Note: If you don’t see this option, contact [whiteglove@attentivemobile.com](mailto:whiteglove@attentivemobile.com) or your CSM and ask them to create your SFTP account.
3. Click **Reset SFTP Password**.<br />A request to reset your password is sent to Attentive.
4. Look for an email from Attentive, and follow the instructions provided in it to enter a **Validation Code** and choose your new password.

## Step 3: Set up Daily Logs

Once your SFTP account is created, we need to ensure Daily Logs will be passed through to your account.

**Please reach out to your Attentive Client Strategy Representative, or[whiteglove@attentivemobile.com](mailto:whiteglove@attentivemobile.com), and use this email template:**
