How to connect VOGSY to external reporting tools
First published on November 15, 2024 , updated on July 3, 2025A key requirement for any enterprise solution is the ability to access your data to create custom reports and dashboards. VOGSY allows you to connect your data to major Business Intelligence (BI) tools like Power BI, Tableau, Looker, and Qlik Sense to extract your own actionable insights.
This article explains how this connection works and how to get started.
How It Works: The BigQuery Data Warehouse
The core of VOGSY's data strategy is BigQuery, a fully managed, powerful, and secure data warehouse.
VOGSY uses BigQuery to provide you with direct access to your data in a scalable and high-performance environment. This allows your data analysts to perform complex queries and analysis using familiar SQL language.
Supported BI Tools and Connectors
BigQuery has native connectors to many popular data visualization and analysis tools, allowing for a seamless integration. VOGSY supports connections to:
Major BI Platforms:
Power BI: A dedicated connector allows you to import VOGSY data to create reports and dashboards, supporting both live connections and data extracts.
Tableau: A native connector lets you build powerful visualizations using your VOGSY data sources directly within the Tableau interface.
Looker: As part of Google Cloud, Looker has deep integration for creating interactive dashboards on top of your VOGSY data.
Qlik Sense: A dedicated connector enables you to load and analyze VOGSY data within your Qlik Sense applications.
Other Tools:
Google Sheets: You can connect Sheets directly to BigQuery to analyze data using familiar spreadsheet tools.
Data Studio (Looker Studio): A built-in connector makes it easy to create interactive reports.
