    It�s not for the faint of heart. I suggest using CloudBase.

    Emma -

    There are a bunch of options (eg quNECT, Amazon RedShift, APIs) for linking Quick Base to Tableau.  What's best depends on a few things:
    • The version of Tableau that you are using
    • How much data is involved
    • What (if any) other data source you are using
    • Whether you need to transform (re-arrange) the data to make the viz' you want
    CloudBase Services can recommend options and integrate the system.  In the end, you will have data automatically flowing from QuickBase into Tableau AND Tableau graphs on your Quick Base dashboards.

    Reach out to CloudBase Services through our website.

    And, thanks, Your Quick Base Coach!

    Not sure about cloudbase as I haven't used it, but using Qunect, you can create an ODBC connection to QuickBase. Then you can connect to that ODBC connection with Tableau to read the data and generate the reports in Tableau. Another way, is to export the data from QuickBase to CSV files and then use them as your data source in Tableau.

    We have one too (www.quicktab.xyz) built on the WDC framework.

    We tackled this issue as well and have started Paasporter to make it easy for anybody else.   The secret is to extract Quick Base data to a real SQL DB.  Now Tableau or any other SQL compliant took can query, curate, optimize and splice the data to your hearts content.

    It is online at www.paasporter.com  

    Quick Base is king for business process but SQL rules reporting.

    To connect with tableau, I use the Download Tool in Alteryx in combination with the Quickbase HTTP API and I have been trying to get this to work for some time.  Any further instructions that you might have would be super helpful!!

    There is one more solution but I don't know if it is working which is QuNect - which is a third-party ODBC driver for QuickBase.
