What our users say
"The intake layer of Datadog’s self-serve analytics platform is largely built on Airbyte.Airbyte’s ease of use and extensibility allowed any team in the company to push their data into the platform - without assistance from the data team!"
“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.”
“We chose Airbyte for its ease of use, its pricing scalability and its absence of vendor lock-in. Having a lean team makes them our top criteria. The value of being able to scale and execute at a high level by maximizing resources is immense”
- Create a Snowflake Account: If you don’t already have one, sign up for a Snowflake account.
- Create a Database and Schema: Once logged in, create a new database and schema where you will store the Stripe data.
- Create a Stage: Set up a stage in Snowflake that will be used to store the files you’re going to load. This can be an internal stage or an external stage like Amazon S3 or Azure Blob Storage.
- Create a Table: Define a table in Snowflake that matches the structure of the data you will extract from Stripe.
- Obtain Stripe API Keys: Log into your Stripe account and get your API keys from the Developers section.
- Write a Script to Call Stripe API: Use a programming language like Python, Node.js, or Java to write a script that calls the Stripe API endpoints for the data you want to extract (e.g., charges, customers, payments).
- Handle Pagination: Ensure your script handles pagination as you might have more records than can be returned in a single API call.
- Error Handling: Implement error handling to deal with any potential issues during the API request.
- Save the Data: Write the data to a CSV or JSON file, ensuring it matches the schema of the Snowflake table you created.
- Clean the Data: Make sure the data types and formats in your file match the columns in the Snowflake table.
- Compress the Data: Optionally, compress the data files using GZIP to reduce the size and speed up the loading process.
- Choose a Method: Decide whether to use Snowflake’s internal stage or an external stage for the data files.
- Upload the Files: Use Snowflake’s web interface, SnowSQL (CLI client), or PUT command to upload the data files to the stage.
- Use COPY INTO Command: In Snowflake, use the COPY INTO command to load the data from the stage into the target table.
- Monitor the Load Process: Check the load process for any errors and ensure all records are loaded successfully.
- Run Queries: Execute some queries against the new table to verify that the data looks correct.
- Data Integrity Check: Compare record counts and sample data between Stripe and Snowflake to ensure integrity.
- Schedule the Script: Use cron jobs (Linux) or Task Scheduler (Windows) to schedule your script to run at regular intervals.
- Logging: Implement logging in your script to keep track of the data extraction and loading process.
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.
Stripe is a technology company focused on helping businesses of all sizes accept web and mobile payments.

Overall, Stripe's API provides access to a comprehensive set of data related to payment processing and management, enabling businesses to effectively manage their payment operations.
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.
