Is it possible to build datasets in Foundry Code Workbook via parameters in Reports? - palantir-foundry

I would like to build a dataset in Foundry Code Workbook via a parameter in Reports.
The dataset in Code Workbook is built using a template that is configured by a parameter in Code Workbook.
I would like to add the dataset to Reports and integrate the Code Workbook parameter to Reports to trigger the build in Code Workbook. What's the best way to accomplish this goal?

Yes, this is possible. To do that, you need to create a workbook level parameter and link it to your template parameter. By using workbook-level parameters, you are able to link together the values of multiple template inputs.
Charts generated in the workbook can be added to Foundry Reports for presentation and collaboration.

Is it possible to set a filter in Google Data Studio with GAS?

Do you have any experience in setting filters in Google Data Studio with GAS?
I created a report in Data Studio that have sensitive information that has to be accessed only by the user who entered that information.
Among my data report columns I have one column that brings the email of the user. I am embedding the report in a Webapp that collect the user email when the page is loaded. I would like to get this email information and set the filter in my Data Studio report that will be displayed in a iframe tag. I am looking for an alternative to set a filter in the main page of my report.
I read the Data Studio service for Apps Script but I still could learn if this is possible!
if you have some experience with this interaction with Data Studio through script I will be glad to know!!
I don't know Webapps but perhaps you should apply the filter in the original spreadsheet and store in a separate sheet. Then use that sheet to pull to the webapp. This would not be dynamic.

SSRS and Google spreadsheets

I am writing a report and one of the sources resides in a Google docs spreadsheet. Is it possible to use that spreadsheet as a datasource in SSRS?
Is this doc spreadsheet Excel file? If so , you can use ODBC driver and use the Excel file as data source. See:
http://hussain-msbi.blogspot.com/2012/07/create-ssrs-report-using-excel-data.html
Otherwise you have to custom a data process extension so that SSRS can read the data.
Unfortunately it is not possible to use a google docs spreadsheet as a direct datasource for SSRS. You would need to make use of an API to download your data locally into a flat file format (such as csv). From there you can access the flat file as an SSRS datasource

Access 2007 Use VBA

I have data in access in the form of a table. I need to export it to excel in the form of an excel sheet where i should even be able to make updates to the data if necessary. I have to do this using VBA. And also one more thing the data I have in access is which i have generated using SQL
Why do this with VBA? There are multiple simple ways to do this from the normal interface options.
And what do you mean by, "the data I have in access is which i have generated using SQL"?

Linking Access records to Excel files

I've been trying to create a complete system using MS Access, but i really need to use the functionality of excel spreadsheets.
I wish to do the following; when I create a record, i create a directory for that record, and copy an excel spreadsheet to that directory.
The spreadsheet will be able to link to the corresponding record. So for example if I have a field 'Name' In the database record, the value of this field will show up on the excel spreadsheet.
Is it possible to do this?
It might help for you to explain your concept of "links" between Access rows and separate spreadsheets. That baffles me.
Rather than "link" each Access record to a separate spreadsheet, perhaps you could have the spreadsheet query the database to retrieve whatever updated information it needs.
Or use automation driven from Access to revise the spreadsheet.
Edit: To get start driving Excel from Access, look at Sample Excel Automation by Dev Ashish
Sounds overly complex and unmaintainable. Why not just embed a spreadsheet into your record?
