Power BI is a powerful visualization platform, but it still lacks the built-in integration of some important connectors, one of which is Stripe. This article continues our previous series on how easy it is to connect data sources to Power BI using Dataddo rather than directly.
Recently, we connected Google Sheets to Power BI using Datadoo; now, we will do the same with Stripe. To navigate directly to a specific section, click below.
Since Power BI lacks a built-in data source for Stripe, there is no native connection between the two tools. Instead, data from Stripe must be manually exported in CSV format before connecting to Power BI. The first step to do this is to sign in to your Stripe account.
For this tutorial, we will be dealing with customer data. After logging into your dashboard, go to the Customers tab and click on Export:
Since the data is in its raw form, preparing it thoroughly before initiating the connection with Power BI is essential. A few steps involved in preparing data are mentioned below:
After completing the steps above, we can proceed with integrating Stripe with Power BI as presented below:
Now, you should have your Stripe data ready to visualize in Power BI.
This manual approach is fine if you're just starting to work with data and want to get the hang of using Power BI. But once you start to depend on visualizations of Stripe data in Power BI, you'll want to automate the connection, because manual import is both tedious and prone to error. This brings us to the next approach.
The second approach is connecting Stripe to Power BI using Dataddo. The first step is to log into Dataddo. If you are not already signed up, get started for free. Dataddo's no-code integration platform can easily connect 300+ services to Power BI or any other BI tools. Here’s how:
And that's it!
Here are some of the advantages of using Dataddo to link Stripe to Power BI:
Dataddo provides 300+ connectors and adds new ones weekly. If a connector is not available, Dataddo will build it upon request, usually within ten business days. This ensures that you'll always be able to connect your services to Power BI or any other BI tool (like Looker Studio or Tableau). Also, creating a flow allows one to connect to other visualization platforms like Looker Studio and Tableau in a snap.
Dataddo offers fixed pricing based on the number of data flows utilized, with each flow representing a connection between a source and a destination (e.g., Stripe to PowerBI).
Dataddo prioritizes user experience, blending power with simplicity through an intuitive, no-code interface. Creating flows is a breeze, as you can see in this article!
No manual effort is required to synchronize data to Power BI. Your dashboards will update automatically at the frequency of your choice.
Dataddo automatically standardizes formats from different datasets (like dates), offers detailed monitoring and alert configuration, and allows users to blend datasets directly in the Dataddo app before sending them to a dashboard.
Precise field selection will keep your dashboards cleaner and less likely to crash from data overload.
Dataddo's team proactively monitors all integrations, ensuring uninterrupted dashboard functionality. If there is an API change, say on Stripe’s end, you don’t need to worry—we'll handle it!
Dataddo offers certified connectors for Microsoft products, ensuring reliable connections and seamless subscription management through Microsoft accounts.
