Frequently asked questions

What is the Google Drive connector?
The Google Drive connector lets you pick files from Google Drive and import them into Better Analyst for AI analysis. It removes the manual download and upload step for spreadsheet-style files.
What file types can I import from Google Drive?
Better Analyst works best with structured spreadsheet and tabular files such as Excel workbooks, CSV files, TSV files, and Google Sheets-compatible exports.
Does Better Analyst edit my Google Drive files?
No. The connector imports the file you choose for analysis. Better Analyst does not edit, delete, or overwrite your source file in Google Drive.
Can I use Google Drive files in dashboards?
Yes. Once a Drive file is imported, you can use it as a source for AI chats, charts, dashboards, and reports.
Do users need their own Google account?

Is Google Drive access secure?
Yes. Better Analyst uses Google OAuth for user-approved access and only imports files selected by the user. Source permissions stay managed in Google Drive.
