TL;DR

This can be done by building a data pipeline manually, usually a Python script (you can leverage a tool as Apache Airflow for this). This process can take more than a full week of development. Or it can be done in minutes on Airbyte in three easy steps:

  1. set up Merge as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
  2. set up MS SQL Server as a destination connector
  3. define which data you want to transfer and how frequently

You can choose to self-host the pipeline using Airbyte Open Source or have it managed for you with Airbyte Cloud.

This tutorial’s purpose is to show you how.

What is Merge

Merge is a puzzle game where players combine matching blocks to create new ones and clear the board. The game starts with simple blocks, but as players progress, they encounter more complex shapes and colors. The goal is to merge as many blocks as possible to earn points and advance to higher levels. The game also includes power-ups and special blocks that can help players clear the board more quickly. Merge is a fun and addictive game that challenges players to think strategically and quickly to achieve high scores.

What is MS SQL Server

Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management (RDBMS) built by Microsoft. As a database server, its primary function is to store and retrieve data upon the request of other software applications, either from the same computer or a different computer across a network—including the internet. To serve the needs of different audiences and workload sizes, Microsoft offers multiple editions (at least 12) of its Microsoft SQL Server.
