"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."
Begin by accessing the Plausible Analytics API to extract the required data. You'll need to authenticate using your API key. Make an HTTP GET request to the appropriate endpoint, such as `/api/v1/stats` or `/api/v1/timeseries`, and specify the necessary parameters to filter the data you need.
Once you receive the JSON response from the Plausible API, parse the data in your preferred programming language (such as Python, JavaScript, or PHP). This will involve loading the JSON data into a structure you can work with, like a dictionary or an array.
After parsing the JSON data, transform it into a structure suitable for insertion into MySQL. Ensure the data matches the schema of your MySQL table. This involves aligning data types and field names between the JSON data and your MySQL table.
Set up a connection to your MySQL database using a MySQL client library for your programming language (e.g., `mysql-connector-python` for Python). Define the connection parameters like the host, database name, user, and password.
If you haven't already, create a table in your MySQL database to store the Plausible data. Define the table schema based on the transformed data. Ensure the table fields align with the transformed data structure from step 3.
Use SQL `INSERT` statements to add the transformed data into the MySQL table. You can loop through the data structure created in step 3 and execute the `INSERT` command for each data entry. Use parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection and ensure data integrity.
Once the data is inserted, verify the data integrity by running queries on your MySQL database. Compare a subset of the data with the original Plausible data to ensure accuracy. Check for any errors or data mismatches and resolve them accordingly.
By following these steps, you can successfully transfer data from Plausible to a MySQL destination 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.

Plausible's API provides access to a variety of data related to website traffic and user behavior. The following are the categories of data that can be accessed through Plausible's API:
1. Site Metrics: This category includes data related to the overall performance of a website, such as the number of page views, unique visitors, bounce rate, and average session duration.
2. Traffic Sources: This category includes data related to the sources of traffic to a website, such as search engines, social media, direct traffic, and referral traffic.
3. User Behavior: This category includes data related to user behavior on a website, such as the pages visited, time spent on each page, and the actions taken on the website.
4. Geolocation: This category includes data related to the geographic location of website visitors, such as the country, region, and city.
5. Devices: This category includes data related to the devices used by website visitors, such as desktop, mobile, and tablet.
6. Browsers: This category includes data related to the browsers used by website visitors, such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer.
Overall, Plausible's API provides a comprehensive set of data that can be used to analyze website traffic and user behavior, and to make data-driven decisions to improve website performance.
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.
