Connecting Insightly to Excel Power Query

Connecting Insightly to Excel Power Query can be done through several steps:

  • First, ensure you have the necessary API credentials from your Insightly account to access your data.
  • Next, open Excel Power Query and click on the 'Data' tab, followed by 'New Query' and then 'From Other Sources.'
  • Select 'Web' as the source and enter the Insightly API endpoint URL, which should look like this: "https://api.insight.ly/v2.1/RESOURCE_NAME". Be sure to replace "RESOURCE_NAME" with the specific data resource you want to retrieve, such as "Contacts" or "Opportunities."
  • Click 'Advanced' and enter your API key in the 'HTTP request header parameter' field, with the key name set as "Authorization" and the value as "Basic API_KEY". Replace "API_KEY" with your actual API key.
  • Once the data has been retrieved, you can use Excel Power Query's built-in tools to clean, format, and model the data as needed. This includes filtering, sorting, and joining data from different tables to create a comprehensive dataset for analysis.
  • Finally, you can visualize Insightly data by creating custom charts, graphs, and reports using Excel's built-in data visualization tools.
  • While these steps can be effective, they can also be time-consuming and require manual intervention. Alternatively, you can use Improvado as a data connector for Excel Power Query Insightly to automate the process and save time.
