Models

Models helps you transform the raw data extracted from connections to structured tables providing insights. Typically, Less users use the final tables created by models in visualisations tools like PowerBI, Metabase, or Tableau.

However, you can also use models to automate tasks using the API tool. That could for instance be to send data from one system to another system.

You can chain multiple models together whereby Model B uses the output of Model A. That is generally considered best practice so you don’t end up with huge and overwhelming models.

Models are built on the Canvas. You can create new models by navigating to the workspaces or a folder and clicking the Create button in the top-right corner.
