What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Auto-refresh Tableau extracts when new files land in GCS buckets

Detect new or updated files in designated Cloud Storage buckets and automatically trigger Tableau extract refreshes. Redbird maps bucket paths to the correct data sources, handles schema validation, and updates extracts without manual intervention. Your dashboards stay current as data arrives.

Transform and prep GCS CSVs for Tableau-ready Hyper extracts

When raw CSV or JSON files land in Cloud Storage, Redbird cleans, transforms, and structures the data based on your Tableau dashboard requirements. It handles data type conversion, null handling, and aggregation before pushing optimized Hyper extracts to Tableau Server or Cloud. Eliminates the prep layer entirely.

Archive historical Tableau data sources back to GCS for compliance

Automatically export older Tableau extracts and workbook data back to Cloud Storage buckets with appropriate lifecycle policies. Redbird maintains metadata, applies compression, and organizes files by date ranges. Keeps your Tableau environment lean while preserving auditability and regulatory compliance.

Monitor GCS data quality and alert before Tableau dashboards break

Redbird scans incoming files in Cloud Storage for schema changes, missing columns, or data quality issues before they propagate to Tableau. When anomalies are detected, it sends alerts and can pause extract refreshes to prevent dashboard errors. Catches problems upstream before stakeholders see broken visualizations.

Blend multi-bucket GCS data and publish unified Tableau data sources

Automatically combine data from multiple Cloud Storage buckets—product logs, CRM exports, and marketing data—into a single, joined dataset published to Tableau. Redbird handles the joins, deduplication, and schema alignment your analysts normally do manually. Creates a single source of truth for cross-functional dashboards.

Export filtered Tableau views back to GCS for downstream ML pipelines

When analysts curate datasets in Tableau through filters and calculations, Redbird can export those refined views back to Cloud Storage in formats ready for machine learning workflows. Maintains the data lineage and applies Tableau's calculated fields so ML teams work with the same definitions as business users.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Google Cloud Storage and Tableau with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird AI understands both GCS bucket structures and Tableau's data source schemas, so it can orchestrate intelligent pipelines without custom code.

AI that reads your data lake and your dashboards

Redbird maps Cloud Storage bucket hierarchies, file naming conventions, and data formats to Tableau's published data sources, extracts, and workbook connections. It understands Parquet schemas, CSV delimiters, JSON nesting, and how these translate to Tableau's column types and relationships. When structures change, Redbird adapts automatically—detecting new fields in GCS and updating Tableau extracts accordingly. No brittle connector configurations or manual schema mapping.

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Google Cloud Storage and Tableau simultaneously, merge the results, and format a polished report — sent on a schedule or on demand.

Trigger-based alerts

Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either Google Cloud Storage or Tableau.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.

Bidirectional sync

Push data from Google Cloud Storage into Tableau, or from Tableau back into Google Cloud Storage. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.

Full audit trail

Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.

Triggers & actions for every team
