These consist of a CSV file import utility for connecting to CSV files on the server, a Google Sheets import utility for connecting to a Google Sheets spreadsheet, AJAX functions for retrieving data via AJAX and documentation about importing data from server-side databases. ~~== Ongoing development ==~~ ~~New versions of RGraph are released every 2-3 months.~~ == License == RGraph is ~~published~~dual licensed using the ~~[[Open~~open ~~Source]]~~source [[~~MIT~~GNU ~~license~~General Public License]] 2.0 and commercial. == Mentions == In July 2014, [[Salesforce]] made RGraph available to be plugged into the [[Data reporting\|reporting]] and [[Dashboard (business)\|dashboard]] tools on its mobile platform. ~~Salesforce1~~RGraph is among six third-party [[Data visualization\|visualization]] tools available inside the dashboards, together with [[Google Charts]], [[D3.js]], [[CanvasJS]], [[Chart.js]], and ~~[[HighCharts]]~~Highcharts.<ref>{{Cite web \|url=https://www.zdnet.com/article/salesforce-adds-analytics-tools-to-salesforce1-mobile-app/ \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141223160812/http://www.zdnet.com/article/salesforce-adds-analytics-tools-to-salesforce1-mobile-app/ \|url-status=dead \|archive-date=December 23, 2014 \|title=Salesforce adds analytics tools to Salesforce1 Mobile App \|website=[[ZDNet]] \|date=3 July 2014 \|access-date=8 December 2019}}</ref> In ~~Ian F.
