Let me show you the basic blocks of TMR. 

There are 3 main sections in TMR, that you can use to create your Report or Dashboard. You can find them by clicking the hamburger menu in the TMR sidebar.

1. 📀 Data Sources

   • You can add as many data sources that you’d want or remove old ones from your account, in this section
2. 📝 Data Queries
   • This is where you’d define which data to pull from your data source and save it into Google Sheets.
   • You can customize the date range, metrics, dimensions, etc for your data in this section.
