Metabase is at https://data.therestartproject.org

This provides tools to query our data warehouse and create dashboards of results. The data warehouse is refreshed nightly from selected tables in the Fixometer.

Simple queries can be implemented using the Custom question builder. For more advanced queries, use the Native query feature (this will be necessary for queries that join across multiple tables for example).

Collections and Permissioning

A Collection is a way of grouping questions. There are two collections defined:

  • Administrative - management questions and dashboards useful for Restart RQ e.g. data quality metrics
  • Community - anything that's of interest to the wider Restart community e.g. impact metrics

An administrative user can configure new users, and determine whether they are also an admin. Administrative users can view and edit all questions/dashboards, whereas non-admin users (community users) can only view the community questions/dashboards.
