Fusion Data Browser for Data Consumers

Fusion Data Browser is a powerful standalone web application for data search, visualisation and analysis.
It has to be installed on a web server, but has few other pre-requisites. For simple installations or testing purposes, it can be deployed to the same web application server as used for your Fusion Registry installation (Apache Tomcat, for example).
Refer to Fusion Data Browser installation for installation and configuration guidance.

Tableau® Web Data Connector

Connect Tableau directly to a Fusion Registry data source.
Start Tableau, choose Web Data Connector and enter the URL of the Fusion Registry service you want to connect to.

Examples URLs:
http://localhost:8080/FusionRegistry/tableau/explorer.html
https://api.mydomain.org/tableau/explorer.html
http://demo.metadatatechnology.com/FusionRegistry/tableau/explorer.html

The Fusion Registry query builder allows you to explore the catalogue of datasets, select those of interest and create filters to retrieve just the series you need. Tableau retrieves the data directly from Fusion Registry allowing you to perform analysis, build charts and create dashboards as normal.
