Familiarize yourself with the Freshdesk API documentation. Freshdesk offers a RESTful API that allows you to access and extract data such as tickets, contacts, and companies. Identify the endpoints that provide the data you need to migrate.
Freshdesk uses API keys for authentication. Obtain your Freshdesk API key from your Freshdesk account settings. This key will be used to authenticate your API requests. Ensure you have the necessary permissions to access the data you plan to extract.
Write a script or use a command-line tool like `curl` to send HTTP GET requests to the Freshdesk API endpoints. Use your API key in the request headers for authentication. Parse the JSON response to extract the data fields you need.
Once you have extracted the data, transform it into a format suitable for import into Oracle. This might involve converting JSON data to CSV or directly to SQL insert statements, depending on your preference and the size of the data.
Ensure your Oracle database is ready to accept new data. This involves having the necessary tables and columns created that match the data structure from Freshdesk. Use SQL commands to create tables if they do not exist.
Use Oracle's SQLLoader or a custom script to import the prepared data into your Oracle database. SQLLoader allows you to load data from flat files into the Oracle database efficiently. Configure the control file to map your data correctly to the database schema.
After loading the data, verify that the data has been imported correctly. Run SQL queries to compare the data in Oracle with the original data from Freshdesk. Ensure data types, lengths, and values are consistent and address any discrepancies immediately.
By following these steps, you can efficiently transfer data from Freshdesk to an Oracle database without relying on third-party connectors or integrations.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
