How to automate QuickBooks to BigQuery integration (detailed guide)

Looking to integrate QuickBooks into Google BigQuery? We have prepared a comprehensive guide to help you accomplish this task with ease. Coupler.io offers an efficient and no-code solution to load data from QuickBooks to Google BigQuery. For more advanced reporting, you can automate this dataflow or even consider Looker Studio as a destination. With it, you can generate insightful reports and dashboards based on your QuickBooks Online data. But first, let's explore the step-by-step instructions to connect QuickBooks to BigQuery.

The connection will only take a couple of minutes and won’t require any technical expertise. All you need to do is follow the instructions provided by the wizard. Once the connection is set, you can see the usage data statistics, namely the number of runs, the number of imported rows, and when the last run took place.

Prerequisites

First of all, register your Coupler.io account. You can do this using your Google account or an email address. After you sign in to Coupler.io, you will need to add a new importer and select QuickBooks as a source app and BigQuery as a destination app.

Importers in Coupler.io are integrations between source and destination apps. If you want to export preset reports from QuickBooks to Bigquery, select QuickBooks Reports as a data source.

It's important to note that a single importer allows you to export a single data entity or report from QuickBooks. If you want to export multiple data entities/reports, you'll need to create a separate importer (QuickBooks to BigQuery integration) for each entity/report. To optimize this process, you can duplicate importers and customize them for the needed QuickBooks data entity/report.

Select QuickBooks to connect with BigQuery

Step 1: Extract data from QuickBooks

Connect your QuickBooks Online account. After that, you need to select the data entity or report to load from QuickBooks to BigQuery.

Once selected, in the Advanced settings, you can optionally specify how to filter and sort data, as well as split multiple line values if the exported QuickBooks data contains any.

To consolidate data from multiple QuickBooks entities or reports, click Add one more source and configure the source accordingly.

Step 2: Transform data from QuickBooks before loading it to BigQuery

Coupler.io not only allows you to connect QuickBooks to BigQuery but also simplifies working with data. Use the Transform module within Coupler.io to manipulate the data directly within the application interface before loading it into BigQuery. Take advantage of the following capabilities:

Preview data: Verify if the required data is correctly loaded before exporting to BigQuery.
Manage columns: Hide unnecessary columns, rename and reorder columns, change column data types, and create calculated columns using supported calculation formulas.
Filter data: Apply filters based on specific criteria to extract only the relevant data. Select the column containing the filtering criterion (e.g., status) and specify the desired value.

Step 3. Manage data to load to Google BigQuery

To connect BigQuery to Coupler.io, you will need to upload the Google Cloud JSON key file. Here, you can learn how to generate this file. Once the BigQuery account is connected, enter the Dataset name and Table name where you want to import the data. You can also create a new dataset/table by typing in new names for them. For your new QuickBooks to BigQuery integration, Coupler.io will auto-detect the data schema. However, you can define it manually if required.

Optionally, you can configure the following parameters:

Change the import mode from Replace to Append. In the Replace mode, all previously imported data will be replaced with the latest information from QuickBooks. In the Append mode, the latest information will be added below the previously imported entries.
Add a column to record the date and time of the last data refresh.
Determine whether data should be updated every time, even if there are no changes in the source.

Manage QuickBooks data to load to BigQuery

The Automatic data refresh parameter is the final step in managing the data. By default, it is turned off, meaning that your QuickBooks data won't be automatically refreshed in the selected BigQuery dataset. If you want to automate the export process to have your data always up to date, toggle on the Automatic data refresh option and configure the desired schedule:

Interval: Choose the desired time interval, ranging from monthly updates to every 15 minutes.
Days of the week: Select the specific days on which you want the export to occur.
Time preferences: Set the preferred time for the export process.
Time zone: Specify the applicable time zone for accurate scheduling.

Automate QuickBooks to BigQuery data export

Click Save and Run to load data from QuickBooks to Google BigQuery and initiate the automatic data refresh. Upon successful import, you can access your dataset with the exported QuickBooks data within BigQuery.

With Coupler.io, you can seamlessly integrate QuickBooks to Google BigQuery to have your data automatically extracted according to the defined schedule. In addition to the scheduled automation, Coupler.io supports incoming and outgoing webhooks. This means that you can integrate QuickBooks into Google BigQuery and set it to refresh based on some external event. Or the performed data refresh of your importer can trigger another importer or any external event. Let Coupler.io streamline your reporting process while you focus on achieving your desired outcomes.
