Integrating Forward Networks with SharePoint and/or Grafana in the cloud.

As part of my onboarding with Forward Networks, I’ve been exploring its native dashboarding capabilities. While the built-in dashboards offer useful insights, I’m not fully convinced they’ll meet the specific reporting needs of our leadership team.To address this, I’m evaluating two integration options:SharePoint: Using the Forward API to retrieve and transform data, then render dashboards tailored to our requirements directly within SharePoint. Grafana Cloud: If SharePoint proves limiting, I’ll explore leveraging our existing Grafana Cloud instance for more flexible visualization.Has anyone integrated Forward with either platform? I’d really appreciate any experiences, suggestions, or recommendations.Below is the format I think supports the SLT teams requirements.Thanks for any feedback.
