Power BI with ingestia.io
Connect Power BI to ready, reliable data over a read-only connection — faster dashboards and numbers that match.
Limited access: Reading via OData/API works for experimentation. Certification with Power BI Desktop is still in progress and is enabled case by case.
The order that works
Before consuming it, data needs to be centralized, cleaned and modeled. ingestia.io handles this in layers (Bronze, Silver and Gold) and delivers a stable foundation for consumption.
How to connect Power BI
You connect Power BI to the platform's consumption layer (Gold), with read-only, scoped access. The foundation is the same for every tool, with no diverging versions.
Integration status
Limited access. Reading via OData/API works for experimentation. Certification with Power BI Desktop is still in progress and is enabled case by case.
What you get
- Read-only connection to the Gold layer
- Faster dashboards (data already modeled)
- Consistent numbers across teams
- The same foundation also feeds Looker Studio and Tableau
What if you don't want an external tool?
Already use Power BI? Keep using it — that's exactly what the connection is for. But ingestia.io also has complete native BI: more than 45 visual types, a semantic model with measures, drill-down, Brazil maps, alerts, row-level access control and AI to ask your data questions in natural language. Many companies combine both — native BI day to day (without per-viewer licensing costs that explode) and Power BI where there's established investment.
How ingestia.io helps
ingestia.io prepares reliable data and delivers it to Power BI and other tools, from data that is centralized and organized in layers. And since native BI and AI are already included in the plans, the external tool is one more option — not a dependency. Monthly plan, usage credits and the same foundation for every destination.
