rcacciato Posted Sunday at 09:11 PM Posted Sunday at 09:11 PM (edited) We've built an order management platform that uses Google Firebase as the database backend. I'm exploring using Filemaker (16) to build a front end to make data manipulation, order analysis, and report generation easier, but I'm not seeing how to connect a Filemaker database to Google Firebase. There are some plug-ins such as GManipulator which integrate with Google apps like calendar and contacts, but it's not clear whether that can connect to a Firebase database and I'd like to avoid spending $150.00 per year (more if I have more users) to use it. In the good old days, it was possible to connect Filemaker to a mySQL (or other) database using ODBC, but that seems to not be an option here. Does anybody have any experience doing this? FYI, I've been asking ChatGPT to guide me and it looked promising but I've run into a dead end since Firebase doesn't seem to accept my definition of the table name when I set the variables and "Insert from URL". Thanks in advance! Richard Edited Sunday at 09:28 PM by rcacciato
