On-Demand Data to Embedded

Hi,

We want to embed reports in a website based on very large data residing in Fusion Metadata.

As I am less familiar with embedded (more with the service), my thoughts are:

- Since the source data is very large, it calls for Direct Query

- Since there is connector to Fusion MetaData, it calls for an API (which doesn't work with Direct Query).

 

Am I missing something? Maybe in embedded I can bring data to the user without bringing it to the model in ways other than DirectQuery?

 

Barak

Hi @barakb32,

Did this API support odbc driver? If that is the case, you can consider designing a custom connector with odbc driver and enable 'direct query' connection mode.
