Data Connections

Link your apps to external tools to extend its functionality or track app usage. You can add two types of data connections: Data Import Connections pull data from an external source into the app while Data Export Connections send data from the app out to an external source.

With data connections, you can populate a dropdown widget with values pulled from a Microsoft Excel worksheet or automatically send the data entered by app users into app fields to a Google Drive folder.

Data connections are one-way and can only import or export data. Certain external data sources appear as both export and import but they are entirely separate connections and have no bearing on each other.

Data connections are configured on a per-app basis. You must configure a new data connection for each app.
