Automating Workflows With Alma's Data Visualization Tool

Session Information

It can be easy to focus on the data visualization possibilities in Alma's Data Visualization tool, which makes sense -- it's right there in the name! But Data Visualization (DV) can also be a powerful tool for automating processes that you would previously need to do outside of the Analytics ecosystem. In this presentation, we'll go over a couple different ways to automate workflows in DV, talk a bit about the pros and cons of using DV instead of another tool, and look at an example of one workflow that we now manage almost entirely in DV.
