Instagram Public Data to Power BI Integration

Use Coupler.io to access insights into your Instagram performance. Set up the Instagram Public Data to Power BI integration within the zero-code environment through three simple steps.

Step 1: Collect data
First, connect your Instagram account to provide access to data for Coupler.io. Next, select the report type to import into Power BI and specify the Instagram profile(s) from which to extract data. Make sure to specify all other required source settings before you proceed to the next step.



Step 2: Organize and transform
Before you import Instagram Public Data to Power BI, verify it’s in good condition for analysis and visualization. If it’s not, consider applying some of the data management options offered by Coupler.io:

• Edit and rearrange columns.

• Sort and filter your data.
• Create new columns with custom metrics using math formulas.
• Blend data from multiple Instagram accounts or other apps.

Elaborating on your data before exporting it in Power BI is a great advantage. You will not need to make major adjustments and transformations on it in a BI tool.

Step 3: Load and schedule refresh
The last step of the process to connect Instagram Public Data to Power BI is to configure destination settings. You will have to generate the integration link and copy it.

Note that you can schedule the integration by activating the Automatic data refresh option. Set up the update interval that aligns with your reporting needs.

Once you are done with all the settings, save the importer and click Run.
