Connect to DX using business intelligence tools such as Looker, Power BI, and Tableau to create custom dashboards and reports.

Steps to connect

Step 1

Navigate to the Data Cloud DB Users tab, then click the "New DB User" button. Label the user with the name of your analytics tool (e.g., "Looker") and then click "Create".

The Database URL contains multiple components of your database credentials interpolated into a single string, in the format below:
