Connecting Your Tool to Real Data (Sheets, DBs, APIs)
Quick Summary
Connecting real data turns a prototype into an operational dependency. The design must protect source systems through clear ownership, least privilege, validation, reconciliation, and safe failure behavior.
What you will learn
- Choose between spreadsheet, database, and API data connections
- Define source-of-truth, identifiers, permissions, and data contracts
- Test synchronization, validation, conflicts, failures, and reconciliation
