I need a feature that allows me to customize the sync time of all data sources.

Admins can now customize the frequency at which Databox pulls data from Data Sources. They can choose from intervals such as 24 hours, 8 hours, 4 hours, and 60 minutes, based on the plan.

User has a custom API data source, which pushes the data, he wants data to be synced in real time and not an hourly.

Use case:
User would like to have an option to customize the sync time of Data Sources, as they have multiple data warehouses in Snowflake. This feature would allow them to run queries as per needs.

This would be a very useful feature.
It would be great to be able to force a sync on-demand, but it would also be great to choose how frequently Databox queries a Data Source. We don't always want it to be as close to real-time as possible, because this can be stressful for the Data Source. If the queries are heavy, and we don't need the data to be super fresh, it would be good to have control over how often Databox is stressing our database with queries.

Hello,
We have reports containing info correlated from different data sources and if one source refresh at one time and the other at another time, then the data is not looking consistent.
It would be great to have the possibility to refresh all sources on a report at the same time (maybe set by a Databox user). I think it's almost mandatory for having logical and consistent data on the report. Please insert this possibility for a better experience with Databox. Thank you.

In Databox we see data near to real time - it updates every hour.
In order to follow on the company's performance in real-time, it would be great to have a function to update data per request.

Hey Leonardo,

Can you tell us more about what you are looking for and why you need it?

Do you need the sync time to happen at a specific time of day or specific minute of the hour? And/or do you need it to sync more frequently? Do you need the sync time of different data sources to occur at different times? Do you need the sync frequency to be higher?

Also, please explain why you need this? What are you trying to do that you can't do now?

... or at least a button for manual data push!
