Can I connect to SaaS tools like Salesforce or HubSpot?

Yes — any SaaS tool with a REST API works through the API endpoint feature. Native SaaS connectors are on the roadmap.

How It Works

Three ways to get your data in

Most teams connect directly to their database — no ETL, live queries. Spreadsheet uploads and REST APIs cover the rest.

Connect a database

Live queries against your existing database. Nothing is copied into DashboardFox, nothing is synced. Enter credentials, whitelist our static IP, and go.

Native drivers built in: PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, MariaDB, Oracle (plus all managed cloud variants)
Self-service ODBC: Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, MongoDB Atlas, Athena, Dremio, Vertica, Trino
Enterprise ODBC: Databricks, SAP HANA, Teradata, Oracle Instant Client (EULA setup — 4 steps)
Data never leaves your database

Upload a spreadsheet

For data that lives in files instead of databases. Upload once or connect to Google Sheets for scheduled refresh — each sheet becomes a queryable table.

Microsoft Excel (.xlsx): multi-sheet files imported as separate tables
CSV: drop a file in, start reporting
Google Sheets via API: scheduled refresh keeps data current
Stored in your dedicated, isolated database

Build a REST API connection

For developers. Point us at any REST endpoint — JSON is auto-flattened into queryable tables. Configure auth, headers, and request body; fetch on demand or on a schedule.

Auth methods: OAuth2, API Key, Basic
Full control: URL, headers, request body — same as any API client
Works with any SaaS with an API: Salesforce, HubSpot, QuickBooks, Stripe, etc.

Vendor-Licensed ODBC Drivers

SAP, Databricks, Teradata, Oracle — a 4-step driver setup

Some enterprise vendors require you to accept their EULA before downloading their driver — we can't redistribute licensed drivers on their behalf. The workflow is straightforward:

1Accept vendor EULA on their portal

→

2Copy the direct download link

→

3Paste into your DashboardFox admin panel

→

4We install and configure on your instance

Also supported via custom ODBC: IBM Db2 / AS/400, Informix, ClickHouse, Greenplum, Apache Drill, Exasol, MonetDB, CData connectors. Talk to our team →

No per-source fees. Every connection type in every plan. Other BI tools charge $7–$500 per month for each additional data source. DashboardFox includes native databases, ODBC, file uploads, Google Sheets, and REST APIs in every plan — including Starter at $99/mo. Plan tiers do limit how many ODBC drivers you can install at once: 2 on Starter, 5 on Growth, unlimited on Scale and Enterprise. Custom driver uploads are available on Scale+. Native database connections, file imports, Google Sheets, and REST API endpoints are unlimited across all plans.

Questions

Integration FAQs

How do I connect my database?

Enter your database credentials (host, port, database name, username, password) and you're connected. We include native drivers for PostgreSQL, SQL Server, MySQL/MariaDB, and Oracle. For cloud warehouses like Snowflake, BigQuery, or Redshift, choose an approved ODBC driver and provide the DSN and credentials. You'll whitelist our static egress IP and all traffic runs over TLS.

What if my database isn't listed?

If it supports ODBC, you can likely connect it. For sources in our self-service driver list, select the driver and we handle the rest. For anything else, contact our team — we can work with you to configure custom or third-party ODBC drivers on your instance. Custom driver uploads are available on Scale and Enterprise plans.

What does "customer provides driver" mean?

Some database vendors (SAP, Teradata, Databricks, and Oracle Instant Client) require you to accept their EULA before downloading the ODBC driver — we can't redistribute licensed drivers on their behalf. The process is straightforward: log into their portal, accept the terms, copy the direct download link, and paste it into your DashboardFox admin panel. We handle the download, installation, and configuration on your instance. Our support team is available to walk you through any step.

How technical is the REST API setup?

It's developer-oriented. You provide the endpoint URL, choose an authentication method (OAuth2, API Key, or Basic), and configure any required headers or request body — similar to setting up a call in any API client. JSON responses are automatically flattened into queryable tables. Best suited for developers or technical users comfortable reading API docs. If you'd rather not do it yourself, our services team can set these up for you.

Can I connect to SaaS tools like Salesforce, HubSpot, or QuickBooks?

Yes — any SaaS tool with a REST API works through our API endpoint feature. You configure auth, headers, and endpoints manually. Native SaaS connectors are on our roadmap and being prioritized by customer demand. In the meantime, our services team can set these up for you.

Do I need to move my data into DashboardFox?

No. For database connections, your data stays exactly where it is — we query it on demand. Nothing is stored in DashboardFox. Data is only stored when you use file imports or API sources that persist fetched results — and even then, it stays in your dedicated, isolated database.

What's the difference between a database connection and an API source?

Database connections run live queries — your data stays in your database and nothing is stored in DashboardFox. API data sources and file imports fetch and store a copy locally for scheduled use, subject to refresh schedules and fair-use limits. Admins can set query timeouts and row limits to protect source systems.

How are my database credentials protected?

Credentials, keys, and uploaded driver files are encrypted at rest — never stored in plaintext or application code. All traffic uses TLS. Higher tiers also support SSH tunnels and TLS certificate management. We recommend using read-only database accounts so DashboardFox can never modify your data. See our security page for full details.

Are there limits on how many data sources I can connect?

Native database connections, file imports, Google Sheets, and REST API endpoints are unlimited across all plans. The only tiered limit is installed ODBC drivers: Starter allows 2, Growth 5, and Scale and Enterprise are unlimited (plus custom driver uploads). API endpoint definitions are also tiered: 10 / 25 / 100 / Unlimited. See full pricing details.

Can I request a new integration?

Yes — submit and vote on requests at roadmap.dashboardfox.com. We prioritize by customer demand and follow up on feasibility.
