Firebase data extraction

Hi, I'm tasked to extract data from a view in Firebase but can't seem to find a suitable Alteryx connector. Any ideas? Many thanks in advance!

Firebase (the platform) or Firestore the GCP NoSQL document database? I don't think Views exist in either. You would use an API to connect Firestore - Firestore does not have or support ODBCs.

Hi, thanks for reply. Would this be via API and to use Python within Alteryx? Is it complicated as I'm not familiar with Python.

Hey sorry - I think there is a nuance to your project which either isn't being communicated to you or which is wrong. First off - what are your sources and where are they? Are they Firebase or Firestore? Are they on GCP? Is there a BigQuery connection? I think there are just so many questions here before we get to the "how do I connect Alteryx" stage.
