# Onboarding

Onboarding requires Simon Data to provide you the following two pieces of information in order to fill out the provider form:

* **Partner ID** - this is the ID identifying your account where the events will be sent to.
* **Partner Secret** - this is an authentication token used by EdgeTag's server when sending events to Simon Data. It should not be kept or shared

You should contact your customer representative at Simon Data to provide you with these.

### Adding the Channel

After obtaining both the partner ID and secret, you can enter them in the form and click **Save & Deploy**.

Once the channel is saved and the tag deployed events should start flowing to your Simon Data account automatically.
