Connect a data source
Point Intellrise at your data and start asking questions. You can connect a database, a Google Sheet, or upload a CSV or Excel file.
Where to start
In the app, open Settings → Data Sources, then click Connect Data Source. Pick the type that matches your data and follow the prompts. You can add more than one source and switch between them.
Connection details and credentials are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM). We read only what's needed to answer your question and don't keep a copy of your source tables.
Connect a database
Supported databases include PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks and Redshift.
- Click Connect Data Source and choose your database type.
- Enter the host, port, database name, username and password (or the connection string / service-account details your database uses).
- Test the connection, then save. A read-only user is recommended.
Connect a Google Sheet
- Click Connect Data Source and choose Google Sheets.
- Authorize Intellrise with your Google account when prompted.
- Pick the spreadsheet and worksheet you want to query, then save.
Upload a CSV or Excel file
- Click Connect Data Source and choose CSV or Excel.
- Select your file. Make sure the first row holds the column headers.
- Confirm the detected columns and save.
Then just ask
Once a source is connected, ask a question in plain English. Intellrise turns it into a query and returns the answer as a chart, table or short report you can save.
