How customer data flows from your FTTH dashboard into Deep IQ.

Contacts come into Deep IQ from the desktop app (a small Windows program you run on a machine in your office). The desktop app scrapes your FTTH dashboard, normalizes phone numbers, and POSTs the rows to your account using an API key. Setup, one time: 1. In Deep IQ, go to Settings → API keys → Generate new key. 2. Copy the key (it's shown once — never again). 3. Install the desktop app on a Windows machine that can reach your FTTH dashboard. 4. Open the desktop app's .env file. Set DEEP_IQ_API_URL=https://app.deep-iq.net and DEEP_IQ_API_KEY=<the key you just copied>. 5. Run the scraper from the desktop app. From then on, every scraper run automatically pushes the latest customer list. You'll see the rows in the Contacts tab within a minute. Why this design? FTTH dashboards differ wildly between ISPs and break weekly. Keeping the scraper as a desktop app lets us update the scraping logic without you redeploying anything; you just download the new desktop build.
