Common questions
Can Knit build “Refresh performance dashboards upon receiving new files” between Dovetail and Google Drive?
Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches Dovetail and Google Drive's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.
How long does it take to build?
Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.
Can scheduled analytics reports be backed up in cloud storage?
Yes, as soon as a report is generated in Dovetail, it can be uploaded directly to designated storage folders in Google Drive for compliance and archiving.
How do dashboard updates work when source files are added?
When new data sheets or files are uploaded to Google Drive, Dovetail detects the addition and automatically initiates a dashboard refresh to reflect updated metrics.
