Our vision for Google Data Studio is to enable customers to access, visualize, and share all their data, regardless of where that data resides. Today we are adding support for the popular Google Cloud SQL and MySQL databases. This is the beginning of making your first party data available through Data Studio.
Using the new Google Cloud SQL and MySQL connector, you can now access the data in your database to create amazing reports and dashboards.
