Hi Abijith

Is there a good reason why your backend must "send" the file to your frontend?
I suppose what you would normally do in these cases is to make some kind of API which simply responds with the file in question. I believe that this could be done rather simple with respond_to (https://apidock.com/rails/ActionController/MimeResponds/InstanceMethods/respond_to) instead of having to make a fully fledged API.

This solution should work regardless of which hosting provider you're using.

Hi Justin

Two things you could look into depending on what more specific you’re looking for.

If you want to get going easy and have something in your own app. I think something like Chartkick could be interesting to look at https://chartkick.com/

If you want a more comprehensive solution. I can recommend Metabase. They recently launched a hosted cloud version. But it’s super easy to host it yourself as well.

Hope you find something that does the trick for you.
