Yellowfin provides a number of opportunities for developers to extend out of the box functionality using the plug-in framework. This allows for the creation of custom Data Transformation (ETL) steps, connectors to third-party API data sources, advanced functions for implementing custom calculations on top of a report data-set, the ability to create custom widgets for the Dashboard Canvas, custom data formatters and connectors and more.
