Integrations

Hi Team, Is it possible to extract the meta data of cubes (its structure), all the available procedures (data model + capsule procedures) with the steps in the json or xml or any other format. How to extract it from the Board application?

1. Abstract This guide explains how to integrate the Board platform with Databricks across different deployment scenarios. It focuses on two primary connectivity approaches: JDBC-based integration via Hybrid data pipeline for Board Cloud environments, and ODBC-based integration for Board On-Premises installations. The…

1. Abstract Board Image Cubes provide an intuitive and user-friendly way to upload and preview images within an application. However, storing image binaries permanently inside the Board data model is not recommended for medium and large implementations because it increases application size, impacts backup and deployment…

What is the rule regarding the data limitations of calling a BOARD API to retrieve data, e.g, what is the best approach to handle big datasets without missing out on any data or that the call fails? Is it possible to use paging? I've created some endpoints fail after adding a block q in the layout for no particular reason…

1. Abstract This document describes the recommended approach for integrating Google BigQuery with Board using the Progress DataDirect JDBC connector within the Data Pipeline. It outlines the integration architecture, configuration steps, and data import methods, positioning BigQuery as the source of truth and Board as the…

1. Abstract Displaying images stored in Google Cloud Storage (GCS) inside Board is straightforward - as long as the URL is constructed dynamically through Board algorithms and secured with a valid signed URL. As Solution Architects, our objective is to provide a clean, modern pattern where Board remains lightweight while…

Hi We have Board on Azure cloud supported by Board. We are moving from our old ERP solution to MS Dynamics 365. The data will be moved from Dynamics to the MS data model and to Azure Fabric – cloud. Are there any others that have made the connection from Board to Azure Fabric? We are struggling to get the connection to…

CONTENT 1.1 Display an image stored in the Azure Storage Displaying images stored in Azure Storage directly in Board is possible by dynamically constructing the URL according to the File Storage public access schema. The integration leverages the algorithm blocks to concatenate the relevant URL components Each image is…

Hello everyone! I have a question: does anyone know if it's possible to establish a connection between Board and Google Docs? I have a questionnaire that nearly 200 people will need to complete, and the different scores they enter should be aggregated to calculate averages. Ideally, they could fill it out in Google Docs,…

1. Abstract A typical request during project implementations is to support the process workflow by adding notifications to users when certain actions have been executed and the next workflow steps can start. In this article, we want to show how to handle the notification to Microsoft Teams through the engagement of an…

1. Abstract This article recaps all the options available when we set up the architecture for Board cloud - SAP integrations that require the Board Connector for SAP by Theobald. In the early implementation stage of projects where Board needs to import SAP data, Board architects – or the implementation partner - and the…

1. Abstract This document illustrates how to adjust and optimize your REST API connection to leverage the more recent and advanced features and remove the technical limitations of previous solutions. Board 12 introduced new ground-breaking integration capabilities. As a Board solution is periodically upgraded to newer…

1. Abstract With the Theobald Board Connector, a SAP-certified middleware is available to load data from SAP systems (ERP/BW) to Board if the database of the system cannot or may not be addressed directly (e.g. HANA via ODBC). More information can be found here: https://help.theobald-software.com/en/board-connector/ In the…

1. Abstract This article discusses the possibilities of using ROLAP cubes to write flags into an SQL server, thus triggering actions on the database side, and how to process this flag. 2. Context Usually, data pre-calculations are loaded into Board from a SQL server, but there are times when we need to initiate actions on…

Hi all, I anticipate that I'll need to make use of the Dynamics 365 connector and the only documentation I've been able to find in the manual relates to this 2022…

Hi Board, We have two different data models and we need to sedn data from the one data model to the other and vice versa. Currently what we have tried is the following: Extract the data from data model A, call a procedure in data model B that would import the extract through Azure using a data reader and paste the data…

Hi, We have set up a Rest API call that bypasses the pipeline and pulls data from a different model in our Board instance. Is it possible to take the payload(source data) that we get from the Rest API and push it directly to a cube in our datamodel? We do not want the payload to be exported into an output file that is…
