Hey there, This plugin is pretty amazing. I was wondering if there was a way to download the result of the queries in a Google Spreadsheet? We use primarly Data Studio for our reporting/dashboards and having a way to automatically update our Google Spreadsheet would be particularly useful. Thank…

When you do a query, you see this: [image] The button that says “CSV” will let you download a CSV file, which you can use with any spreadsheet.

Oh I know :slight_smile: But what I’m looking for would be for the data to be automatically put in a Google Spreadsheet (instead of me downloading the CSV, opening it, copying the data over,…)

Not something I have tried yet but you could technically use zapier making an api call to the data explorer plugin and have the data feed into Google sheets

How would I do that API call? I didn’t see anything here or on Discourse API Docs ? Thanks a lot!

Tried that but I get a “Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.”. Will try to find more with the Network tab, but if anybody has more details (or easier how-to) feel free to share :slight_smile:

Are you also providing the user credentials through an API key?

@Jp_Robotshop Did you manage to get it to work I have just tested it and was able to send through a POST request to DOMAIN/admin/plugins/explorer/queries/18/run Make sure you are sending your api_key and api_username through the form data and it should return your data ok.
