The setup requires no coding or database configuration, allowing you to start visualizing your files within minutes.
What kind of dashboards can I build with FTP data in Looqbox?
You can create custom reports that track file upload patterns, monitor data completeness across CSV columns, and compare values from different file versions over time. Business teams often build operational dashboards to visualize inventory levels, sales performance, or marketing metrics that arrive as scheduled file drops on their FTP server.
How often does the FTP data update in my Looqbox reports?
Kondado offers a configurable schedule that lets you choose update frequencies ranging from every 5 minutes to daily, depending on how frequently your files change. Once configured, your Looqbox reports refresh automatically to reflect the latest file contents without requiring manual intervention or file re-uploads.
What specific KPIs can I track from CSV files stored on FTP?
You can monitor metrics such as row counts to track data volume trends, file arrival times to ensure timely data delivery, and column consistency to validate data structure integrity. The __file_basename field allows you to distinguish between different file versions or sources, enabling you to compare performance across specific time periods or business units.
Can I share my Looqbox dashboards with team members who don't have FTP access?
Yes, once your data flows into Looqbox, you can distribute reports and dashboards to colleagues through Looqbox's built-in sharing features without granting them direct FTP server credentials. This allows marketing teams, executives, or external partners to view insights while maintaining controlled access to the original file storage.
Do I need technical skills to set up the FTP to Looqbox connection?
No coding or technical expertise is required to establish the connection, as Kondado provides a streamlined interface for entering your FTP details and selecting data pipelines. The platform handles the data replication process automatically, making it accessible for business users, marketing teams, and operations managers who need visual insights without IT support.
How does Kondado handle CSV files with different column structures?
The CSV pipeline includes metadata fields like column_number and row_number that help you analyze files even when column arrangements vary between uploads. This flexibility allows you to consolidate reports from multiple sources or time periods into a single Looqbox dashboard without manually standardizing file formats beforehand.
