UnpackData docs

UnpackData turns the data in your databases into queries, charts, dashboards, forms, alerts and workflows that your team uses in the browser. Every workspace runs on its own private server. This guide walks through each feature step by step. If you already know what you need, use the sidebar, or press Ctrl+K (⌘K on a Mac) to search.

How UnpackData works

Bring in data. Add a connection to your database, an API connector, an Excel upload, or tables generated by the Schema Builder.
Shape it. Combine tables in a dataset if you need to, then build a query.
Use it. Turn query results into grids, charts, alerts, master lists, timelines and dashboards. Collect new data with forms, and hand work from one person to the next with workflows.

No data yet? Build a form. Every submission becomes a row in your tables, so you can start with nothing and still end up with real data.
