Ingest data from Google Drive into Toric.
Last updated on
January 31, 2024

Google Drive is a cloud-based spreadsheet application developed by Google. It is a web-based alternative to traditional spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Excel, and is part of the Google Workspace suite of productivity applications. The Toric Google Drive connector allows users to quickly login to a Google account and get direct access to spreadsheets. With ingestion features like Automations, users can ensure their CSV, XLS, or Google Sheets files are always up to date in the Toric system.

With the Google Drive connector, Toric users can:

  • Use their CSV, XLS, or Google Sheets data in our no-code workspace for engineering and visualizations.
  • Cleanup and transform data in a non-destructive way.
  • Reuse your data transformations for new versions and projects with reusable data flows.
  • Access version history to compare and analyze differences and changes over time.
  • Blend your files with other sources with a few clicks.
