What I’m trying to do:
I want to have better analytics on my anvil datatables.
What I’ve tried and what’s not working:
Most tools (Tableu, BlazeSQL, …) require static connection credentials (I think), but anvil’s are temporary and must be retrieved with
anvil.tables.get_connection_string()
I am parallely trying to use Anvil X and connecting this way, but I am not finding a way to connect the anvil tables to tableau, only to manipulate a tableau workbook using anvil’s python.
Have others tried to do the same? Does anyone have an easy approach? Or is Anvil X the best way forward?
With Anvil X, I just started, but it seems I need an anvil X app, so I connect from that to my main app’s datatables somehow? Again with
anvil.tables.get_connection_string()
or is there a simpler way?
Just trying to get a handle on this. It’s all quite new to me!
