What can you do with Geckoboard on Tray.ai?
Geckoboard is a dashboard tool that shows a team's key metrics on screens and in the browser, pulling data from business apps, spreadsheets, databases, and custom datasets. Tray.ai connects to Geckoboard through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the Geckoboard API alongside the rest of your stack.
- Append data to a dataset each time a deal closes in your CRM, so the sales dashboard stays current.
- Replace all dataset data nightly with fresh figures from your data warehouse.
- Find or create a dataset for each new team metric your operations team starts tracking.
- Connects through
- HTTP Connector
- Authentication
- Basic authentication
- Base URL

Set it up
Connect Geckoboard to Tray.ai
Each step uses Geckoboard's own API details, from its documentation.
Step 1
Save Geckoboard's username and password
Save the credentials Geckoboard gives you as a Tray.ai authentication. The HTTP Client sends them as basic auth. They stay out of the workflow and out of the logs.
Step 2
Point the HTTP Client at the API
Add an HTTP Client step and use https://api.geckoboard.com as the base URL. Or paste a cURL example from Geckoboard's API docs, and Tray.ai fills in the method, URL, and headers.
Step 3
Start with “Find or create a dataset”
It's one of 5 documented actions, under Datasets. The response comes back as data the next step can map into your other apps.
Step 4
Hand it to an AI agent
Wrap “Append data to a dataset” and “Replace all dataset data” in workflows, and Tray.ai's Agent Gateway for MCP publishes them as governed tools Claude and other AI agents can call.
What the Geckoboard API covers
2 resources and 5 documented actions, each one a call the HTTP Connector can make from a Tray.ai workflow. Connecting it takes a few clicks: here's how.
Datasets
- Find or create a dataset
- Delete a dataset
Dataset records
