API-based Integration of Stripe with Power BI

Integrating Stripe with Power BI through the API involves a streamlined process that automates data retrieval and loading. This method minimizes hands-on involvement compared to manual data manipulation and comprises the following steps:

  1. Retrieving API Keys from Stripe: Access your Stripe account to obtain the required API keys. These keys are essential for authentication, providing secure access to your Stripe data.
  2. Fetching Data Using the Stripe API: Utilizing the obtained API keys, create a script to automatically retrieve data from Stripe’s API. Following REST principles, Stripe’s API supports various programming languages such as Python, Node.js, and .NET. This step facilitates the extraction of diverse data types, including payouts, disputes, payments, refunds, and transaction details.
  3. Loading Data into a Database: The fetched data, often in JSON format, needs to be loaded into a database. This crucial step organizes and stores the data before it is imported into Power BI.
  4. Importing Data from the Database into Power BI: Through Power Query Editor, establish a connection to the database where your Stripe data is stored. Import this data into Power BI for subsequent analysis and visualization.

 

The API-based approach proves more automated and efficient, particularly for routine and large-scale data imports. This approach minimizes manual data manipulation and is well-suited for users with proficient coding and database management skills.
