Can iDBQuery read files from SharePoint, Google Drive, or Dropbox?

Yes. Files synced or downloaded from SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive, or Dropbox can be ingested by iDBQuery as a folder, turning the CSVs, Excel workbooks, and PDFs inside into one live queryable model, and Google Sheets connect directly, so you can ask questions across cloud-stored files in plain language.

Cloud file storage like SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive, and Dropbox holds the same file types iDBQuery already ingests, CSV, Excel, JSON, and PDFs, so the truthful route is straightforward. You make the folder available to iDBQuery, typically by syncing it locally (these services all offer a synced folder on your machine or server) or downloading the files, and point iDBQuery's folder ingest at it. Everything inside becomes part of one live, queryable model. For Google specifically, Google Sheets connect directly, no download needed.

After ingest you can ask:

  • Across the shared reports folder, what is total revenue by month this year?
  • Combine every regional workbook in the Drive and show which regions are declining.
  • Across the contracts stored in SharePoint, which renew next quarter?

Every figure is cited to the specific file and row. Because iDBQuery builds one model, cloud-stored files can be joined to your databases and other sources in a single answer. For sensitive documents, iDBQuery's Desktop app or an on-prem/VPC deployment reads the synced files locally so they never leave your environment. iDBQuery does not present a branded one-click SharePoint or Dropbox tile; it ingests the files those services store, which keeps the flow simple and honest. The only step is making the folder reachable, after which the plain-language question works like any other folder.
