Redash
Description
Redash is an open-source data visualization and querying tool. Teams connect Redash to their databases, write SQL queries, and build dashboards on top of the results.
Setup guide
Follow this setup guide to connect Redash to Improvado.
Click the Connections in the left navigation bar.
Categories on the Data sources page group all available platforms. Use a search to find the required one.
Click on the Redash tile.
Get your Redash instance URL and API key:
Log in to your Redash instance and copy the instance URL from the browser address bar, for example https://redash.example.com.
Click your avatar in the top-right corner and select Edit Profile.
Open the Account tab and copy the value in the API Key section.
Back in Improvado, fill in the connection form:
- Redash URL — the instance URL you copied in Step 3.1.
- API Key — the key you copied in Step 3.3.
Click Connect. After the connection completes successfully, the Redash connection appears in your Connected sources list.
Select the Redash data sources you want to work with as accounts. When the connection status is Active, you can move on to data extraction.
To extract data from the connected source, follow the instructions on how to set up data extraction.
- The API key inherits the permissions of its owner. Connect with a user that has access to all the data sources you plan to extract.
