  Geckoboard is a cloud dashboard service that lets teams build TV-ready,
  real-time business dashboards from spreadsheets, databases, and 90+
  pre-built integrations (Salesforce, HubSpot, Stripe, Zendesk, Google
  Analytics, etc.). The Geckoboard Datasets API lets developers push their
  own data into Geckoboard by defining a schema and appending or replacing
  records, which can then power any dashboard visualization. The API is
  HTTPS-only and authenticates with HTTP Basic auth using a Geckoboard API
  key as the username.
