Applications

An application is a self-contained analytics project, composed of five modules:

  1. Data — Enables configuration and management of the application's data sources.
  2. Dashboards — A robust data dashboard system to create, browse, configure, customize, and deploy interactive data visualizations.
  3. Automation — Set triggers, then define conditions and actions to automate tasks within an application.
  4. Pixel-Perfect Reports — Build highly customizable and detailed reports out of your data and data visualizations.
  5. Settings — Configure the global settings for an application.

A Connection is the link established between Qrvey and your external data source. This could be a database, a data warehouse, CSV & JSON files, a cloud storage services like AWS, incoming data from REST APIs, or some other system that store data. Connections allow Qrvey to access and retrieve data from these external sources. The main purpose of a connection is to establish a secure and reliable pathway for data retrieval and integration into Qrvey.

Datasets include data from one or more Connections. The transformation process involves cleaning, filtering, aggregating, and joining data to ensure it is ready for analysis. Once the dataset is created, it is stored within Qrvey's infrastructure. The main purpose of a dataset is to provide a structured and optimized collection of data for creating visualizations, reports, and dashboards.

Connections and Datasets work together to create Qrvey's data-driven experience.

  1. Create connections to external data sources (databases, cloud storage, etc.).
  2. Import the data from a Connection to create and configure your Dataset(s) as desired.
  3. Use the Datasets to create Dashboards, Pixel Perfect Reports, and other analytics.
  4. Embed these within your own application with Qrvey Widgets.

After a user is logged in, they are directed to the Applications page, which serves as a Home page and displays all the Qrvey applications available to them. While navigating the app, a user can return to this page by clicking the home icon in the upper left corner of the Qrvey Composer user interface.
