Connected Action enables cloud storage of your social media networks with the NodeXL Graph Server Database

10FebMay 7, 2015 By Marc Smith

Connected Action Logo

Connected Action enables cloud storage of your NodeXL social media network datasets.

The Connected Action NodeXL Graph Server Importer allows you to import your Twitter or Facebook data into NodeXL from the cloud based Connected Action NodeXL Graph Database.

Contact Connected Action for pricing and availability.

The Connected Action NodeXL Graph Server Database enables NodeXL users to store their social media data from Twitter and Facebook in a personal Cloud Storage locker.

Specify the search terms and queries that matter to you with your Connected Action account representative and the Connected Action NodeXL Graph Database will collect and store your social media data for you every day.

Subscribers to the Connected Action NodeXL Graph Database can then use NodeXL to import long periods of their collected social media network data in a short period of time!

The importer can be added to any recent copy of NodeXL.

Just download and unzip the add-in and copy it to the folder you have selected to hold 3rd party importers for NodeXL .

You can select the folder to use for 3rd party importers via the NodeXL menu located at:

NodeXL>Data>Import>Import Options:

20150210-NodeXL-Data-Import-Import Options Dialog

This folder can be located anywhere in your file system.

When you restart NodeXL, your NodeXL>Data>Import Menu may look like this:

20150210-NodeXL-Data-Import-Import Menu List

When you select the option “From Connected Action NodeXL Graph Server…” you will get a dialog that looks like:

Enter  your account credentials and then enter the queries you have created with your Connected Action account representative.

NodeXL will then import a social media network data set that can be automatically analyzed and visualized.

NEW: NodeXL updates Twitter user and list importer

06JunMay 7, 2015 By Marc Smith

NodeXL has new updates to its importers for Twitter users and lists.

We have released an updated version of NodeXL that simplifies and merges the previously separate User and List importers.

The new, streamlined importer treats an individual user as a list of one.

Lists can be defined by pointing to an existing Twitter List or simply entering a list of delimited user names into the text box.

2014-NodeXL-Data-Import-From Twitter Users Network

The updated importer now collects many more tweets per person and parses these messages to generate reply and mention edges.

You can now define a group of Twitter users and find out how much they reply and mention one another.

You can even pull in the followers of each person, to see if they reply or mention people they also follow.

But ever since June 11, 2013, Twitter has made access to the “follows” edge data very difficult (its just very slow).  Designed and implemented prior to the update that restricted access to the follower network, the original NodeXL Twitter list importers relied mostly on queries that are now impractically slow for all but the smallest lists of users who have small collections of followers.

The update to these User and List importer is partially an adaptation to these changes.  The importer shifts away from the follower network to focus on the communication interaction data in the content of Tweets.  Since Twitter offers more generous access to Tweets than to information about who follows who, we are obliged to make better use of what they do offer.

The results are insightful!  Here is a map of the connections among the members of the United States Congress.

3rd Party Data Importers for NodeXL: Web, Exchange, and Facebook Importers

07SepMay 7, 2015 By Marc Smith

NodeXL Logo

NodeXL is extendable.  3rd Party developers have been building data providers that can plug into NodeXL that connect the network visualization tool to sources of network data.  We now have three providers of extensions to NodeXL: VOSON for WWW hyperlink networks, the Exchange Spigot for NodeXL for extracting enterprise email networks, and the Facebook Spigot for NodeXL that extracts your own Facebook network for analysis and visualization!

We welcome additional data provider projects!  Have a network? Connect it to NodeXL with the simple directions listed here.


Import hyperlink networks into NodeXL with the VOSON System — a web-based software incorporating web mining, data visualisation, and traditional empirical social science methods (e.g. social network analysis, SNA).

Exchange Spigot for NodeXL enables Microsoft Excel plugin NodeXL to collect messaging data from the Microsoft Exchange Server and display that data as a graph.

Facebook Spigot for NodeXL is a new graph data provider for NodeXL which will allow each user to directly download and import from within NodeXL different Facebook networks.
