# INSEE Conjoncture

Follow our setup guide to connect INSEE Conjoncture to QUANTI:

{% hint style="info" %}
**Exogenous connector** — French macroeconomic indicators from INSEE (household confidence, consumer prices, business climate, distance-selling turnover). Each report is one official monthly series, identical for all projects. Join them by date to explain sales variations, or use them as control variables for Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM).
{% endhint %}

## Prerequisites

* None: no account or credentials are needed.

***

## Authentication

No authentication is required.
