We’ve just rolled out a change to make our OData endpoint much faster.

For example, it is down from 20 minute to 6 minutes to import 150,000 Tweets.

If you’ve Tableau, or other software that can read OData, please try it out!

If you’ve already got a connection set up, you need to go and get the URL from the OData tool again, as the new faster one is different.

Full instructions on how to use it in this blog post. If you’re a programmer and you’re interested in how we did it, you can see the new code here.
