What you can automate today

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

Auto-refresh Tableau dashboards when new data lands in Drive folders

Monitor shared Drive folders for new CSV or Excel files from partners, vendors, or automated exports. Redbird validates schema compatibility, transforms the data to match Tableau extracts, and triggers dashboard refreshes—no manual intervention required.

Export Tableau dashboard snapshots to Drive on schedule or trigger

Automatically capture Tableau dashboard views as PDFs or images and organize them in Drive folders by team, client, or time period. Perfect for archiving weekly executive reports or creating audit trails of analytical outputs.

Consolidate multiple Drive spreadsheets into unified Tableau data sources

Pull CSVs from different Drive folders—sales territories, regional teams, or departmental exports—and merge them into a single clean dataset for Tableau. Redbird handles schema alignment, deduplication, and incremental updates automatically.

Publish Tableau workbook extracts back to Drive for external sharing

Export sanitized or filtered data extracts from Tableau workbooks to shared Drive folders for partners, clients, or teams without Tableau licenses. Maintain single source of truth while enabling broader access to insights.

Alert stakeholders via Drive when Tableau metrics cross thresholds

When Tableau detects anomalies or KPIs hit targets, automatically generate detailed reports with visualizations and context, then save them to designated Drive folders where stakeholders already collaborate. No need to check dashboards manually.

Prep and validate Drive files before Tableau ingestion using AI

Before new files hit Tableau, Redbird inspects column headers, data types, and formatting issues in Drive documents. Fix common problems like date formats, numeric encoding, or missing values automatically—ensuring clean data reaches your dashboards.

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 Drive 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 understands Drive's file structures, permissions, and formats alongside Tableau's data sources, extract schemas, and workbook hierarchies—so automations work with your existing setup.

AI that reads your data sources and dashboard schemas

Redbird maps Drive file columns to Tableau data source fields automatically, understanding naming variations, data types, and join keys. It recognizes CSV delimiters, Excel sheet structures, and nested folder hierarchies in Drive, then aligns them with Tableau extract schemas, calculated fields, and published data sources. When files change, Redbird detects schema drift and handles transformations without breaking dashboards.

faster than exporting CSVs, cleaning data manually, and re-uploading to Tableau

No need for custom Python scripts, intermediate databases, or scheduled batch jobs

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Google Drive 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 Drive 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 Drive into Tableau, or from Tableau back into Google Drive. 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.
