Odoo Power BI Desktop Connector
The Power BI Desktop Connector for Odoo enables seamless, secure, and optimized data integration between
your Odoo database and Microsoft Power BI Desktop - without the need for external servers or
complex ETL pipelines.
This connector empowers business users and analysts to extract, visualize, and analyze real-time Odoo data directly in Power BI.
Using a secure token-based authentication mechanism, it ensures that only authorized users can access and synchronize
business-critical data.
The connector intelligently handles large datasets using built-in pagination, offset, and
hybrid ORM + SQL optimization, ensuring smooth and efficient data transfer from Odoo to Power BI - even for
millions of records.
With just a Base URL and Access Token, users can connect Power BI Desktop directly to Odoo, explore
all available models (such as Sales Orders, Invoices, Contacts, Inventory, and more), and build dynamic dashboards or
reports without writing any code.
The connector is designed to be lightweight, secure, and extensible - allowing developers to customize domain filters,
control access per model, or extend data export logic to meet specific business needs.
Whether you need real-time reporting, historical analysis, the Odoo Power BI Desktop Connector ensures a
reliable, direct, and secure data bridge between Odoo and Power BI.
