The time has come - you can now upload a CSV file and query it in Glean like any other table using DuckDB! Write custom queries, joins and update the data. We also support JSON and Parquet files.


Slack 🤝 Glean

Public Demo Site

We launched a public demo (opens in a new tab) site to show off example use cases in Glean! Check out the current examples for retention and subscription businesses; we’ll be adding additional examples over time.


[Beta] YAML Editor

Advanced users can now directly edit models and saved explorations as code with our in-browser YAML editor, now in beta. Iterate quickly on your DataOps configurations with real-time updating and built-in autocompletion.
