TDAmeritrade missing from "Available connections"

Per this article https://ninjatrader.com/ConnectionGu...nnection-Guide, I should be able to configure TDAmeritrade with NinjaTrader, however it's missing from the "Available connections" box. See attached screenshot. Please help!

hello if one has a working connection to Tdameritrade via NT8 what should one expect the Historical data to show? Meaning, I have connected to my tdameritrade account but there is not much back data, for minute charts. Is there a setting that I need to adjust?

TIA

ps sorry if wrong place but with the new forum I have looked and can't find any input on how to create new thread nor why when I hit "back" on the browser it takes me back to a place I never was! LOL
