About this Product

The Power BI Connector for Magento is a build-to-order Magento 2 / Adobe Commerce extension that turns your storefront into a governed data source for Microsoft Power BI. There is no instant Marketplace download — ECOSIRE builds, installs, and supports the module on your own Magento install, then delivers a .pbix template wired to your data so your finance and BI teams stop hand-exporting CSVs.

Technically, the connector ships as a module under app/code/Ecosire/PowerBiConnector with di.xml virtual types defining each extract, service contracts (Api/ interfaces + Model/ implementations) exposing curated datasets, and a read-optimized REST/OData endpoint Power BI consumes via Web/OData connectors using OAuth2 bearer tokens scoped by admin ACL. We model directly off the catalog, sales_order, sales_order_item, customer_entity, and inventory (MSI inventory_source_item) tables, exposing flattened, BI-friendly views rather than raw EAV — so Power BI doesn't choke on attribute joins.

Incremental extraction runs on Magento cron (configurable groups), tracking high-water marks per entity so each refresh pulls only changed rows. Observers on events like sales_order_save_after can optionally flag near-real-time deltas. For multi-store and multi-website setups, data is tagged by store_id / website_id so the prebuilt Power BI data model consolidates every storefront into one report — with star-schema templates (date, product, customer, store dimensions) you can extend.

Works on Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce (on-prem or cloud). We honor your existing GraphQL/REST surface and never bypass service contracts or write raw SQL into core tables. You own the code, the dashboards, and the data. Pricing is a one-time build fee; scope, custom KPIs, and refresh cadence are confirmed in a short discovery call before we start.

Frequently Asked Questions about Power BI Connector for Magento

How long until it's delivered, and is this an instant download?

No — this is build-to-order, not a Marketplace download. After a short discovery call to confirm your data scope, KPIs, and refresh cadence, typical delivery is around 2-4 weeks depending on the number of custom datasets, multi-store complexity, and your environment access. We install and validate on staging before production, and the timeline is confirmed in writing before work begins.

Do you provide ongoing support and updates?

Yes. Because ECOSIRE builds and installs the module on your own Magento instance, we include a defined post-launch support window for bug fixes and compatibility with Magento patch releases. Because you own the code, you can also maintain it yourself or extend the dashboards in Power BI Desktop. Longer-term maintenance and Magento/Adobe Commerce major-version upgrade support are available as a separate agreement.

Does it work with both Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce?

Yes. The module is built against standard Magento 2 framework APIs — service contracts, di.xml, cron, observers, and ACL — so it runs on Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce, on-prem or cloud. Adobe Commerce B2B tables and shared catalog data can be included in scope if you use them.

Will it slow down my store or read raw database tables directly?

Extraction runs on Magento cron against read-optimized, flattened datasets exposed through service contracts — not heavy live queries on the storefront request path. We track high-water marks per entity so each refresh pulls only changed rows, and we never write raw SQL into core tables or bypass Magento's data layer.

How does Power BI actually connect and refresh?

The module exposes a secured read-only REST/OData endpoint that Power BI consumes via its native Web/OData connector using OAuth2 bearer tokens scoped by admin ACL. We deliver a .pbix template already wired to your model and help configure the Power BI gateway and scheduled refresh so dashboards stay current automatically.

Can it consolidate multiple stores and websites into one report?

Yes. Every dataset is tagged by store_id and website_id, and the prebuilt star-schema model includes a store dimension. This lets you view each storefront separately or roll everything up into a single consolidated sales, inventory, and customer report.
