"For TUI Musement, Airbyte cut development time in half and enabled dynamic customer experiences."
Chase Zieman
“Airbyte helped us accelerate our progress by years, compared to our competitors. We don’t need to worry about connectors and focus on creating value for our users instead of building infrastructure. That’s priceless. The time and energy saved allows us to disrupt and grow faster.”
Rupak Patel
"With Airbyte, we could just push a few buttons, allow API access, and bring all the data into Google BigQuery. By blending all the different marketing data sources, we can gain valuable insights."
To access Dataverse data, you need to create an application in Azure Active Directory. This application will be used to authenticate your API requests to the Dataverse. Go to the Azure portal, navigate to "Azure Active Directory", and register a new application. Note down the Application (client) ID, Directory (tenant) ID, and create a client secret for authentication purposes.
Dataverse provides a Web API that you can use to access its data. Use the endpoint `https://.api.crm.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.0/`, replacing `` and `` with your Dataverse organization and entity name respectively. Use an HTTP client like Python's `requests` library to send a GET request to this endpoint, authenticating with the AAD credentials obtained in the previous step. Parse the JSON responses to extract the data you need.
Once you have the data, convert it into a CSV format suitable for uploading to S3. Use Python libraries such as `pandas` to transform the JSON data into a DataFrame and then use `DataFrame.to_csv()` to save it as a CSV file locally. This format is widely supported and will facilitate the import process into AWS services.
Before uploading to S3, ensure you have the proper AWS IAM roles and policies configured. Create a policy that allows `s3:PutObject` permission on the target S3 bucket and attach it to an IAM role. This role will be assumed by your application or script to perform operations on AWS resources.
Use AWS SDKs, such as `boto3` in Python, to upload the CSV file to an S3 bucket. First, configure your AWS credentials using the IAM role you just set up. Then, utilize `boto3` to call the `put_object` method, specifying your target S3 bucket and the CSV file path. Verify the upload by checking the S3 bucket contents through the AWS Management Console.
To catalog the data for querying, create an AWS Glue Crawler. In the AWS Glue Console, create a new crawler, specify the S3 path where the CSV files are stored, and set the data store type to S3. Define an IAM role that AWS Glue can assume to access the S3 bucket. Run the crawler to populate the AWS Glue Data Catalog with metadata about your dataset.
Once the crawler has finished, the data is cataloged and ready for querying. Use AWS Glue to define ETL jobs if needed, or directly query the data using Amazon Athena. In the Athena console, use SQL queries to interact with your data stored in S3, leveraging the metadata cataloged by AWS Glue.
By following these steps, you can effectively move data from Microsoft Dataverse to AWS S3 and utilize AWS Glue for further data processing, without relying on third-party connectors.
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.
Microsoft Dataverse provides access to the org-based database on Microsoft Dataverse in the current environment This connector was anciently known as Common Data Service. Microsoft Dataverse is one kind of data storage and management engine serving as a foundation for Microsoft’s Power Platform, Office 365, and Dynamics 365 apps. It can easily decouple the data from the application, permitting an administrator to analyze from every possible angle and report on data previously existing in different locations.
Microsoft Dataverse's API provides access to a wide range of data types, including:
1. Entities: These are the primary data objects in Dataverse, such as accounts, contacts, and leads.
2. Fields: These are the individual data elements within an entity, such as name, address, and phone number.
3. Relationships: These define the connections between entities, such as the relationship between a contact and an account.
4. Business rules: These are rules that govern how data is entered and processed within Dataverse.
5. Workflows: These are automated processes that can be triggered by specific events or conditions within Dataverse.
6. Plugins: These are custom code modules that can be used to extend the functionality of Dataverse.
7. Web resources: These are files such as HTML, JavaScript, and CSS that can be used to customize the user interface of Dataverse.
Overall, the Dataverse API provides access to a wide range of data types and functionality, making it a powerful tool for developers and users alike.
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.
