How to connect your Facebook Pages account to PowerBI
Add a source on Catchr
To kickstart the integration process, begin by navigating to the main dashboard of Catchr. Look for the "Sources" link located in the sidebar menu on the left. Once inside the Sources section, click on the "Add a Source" button positioned in the top right corner of the screen.
Now, you'll want to select "Facebook Pages" from the list of available platforms. Follow the prompts for authorization to grant Catchr access to your Facebook Pages account.
Create the request to transfer Facebook Pages data to PowerBI
Within Catchr, locate and click on "API" in the left sidebar menu.
Begin by changing the export format to "PowerBI".
In the "Source" tab, select "Facebook Pages" as your data source.
Choose the specific Facebook Pages account(s) from which you wish to extract data and key performance indicators (KPIs).
Pick the metrics and dimensions relevant to your data analysis. You have the flexibility to select more than one.
Attention: For those utilizing Catchr's templates, ensure all necessary dimensions and metrics are selected as indicated on the template's information page within Catchr. Once selected accurately, the template will populate with your data, which you can then tailor to your specific requirements.
Determine the timeframe for your data pull from Facebook Pages, opting either for a custom range or one of the preset intervals.
Apply any additional filters to your request as needed.
You may also incorporate platform-specific options to your request.
When your request is finalized, a URL will be generated and displayed in the top bar. To preview your data before finalizing, click "Preview" in the top right corner.
After a brief waiting period, you'll be presented with a preview of the data.
Once you're satisfied with the data preview, copy the provided URL. This will be necessary for the next step where you connect Facebook Pages to PowerBI.
Import the Facebook Pages data and KPI to PowerBI
PowerBI Desktop
In the PowerBI Desktop application, navigate to "Get Data" and select "Web". Stay in the basic input mode and paste the URL you generated previously into the designated field. This may take a moment, but once PowerBI has imported your data, you can refine it using the PowerBI Query Editor. With the data now in PowerBI, embark on creating a dynamic dashboard, which you can publish and circulate within your team or organization for effective data-driven strategies.
PowerBI Web App
To access your datasets on the PowerBI web application, you'll first need to publish them from the PowerBI Desktop. Afterward, on the web app, select "New Report" and choose from the listed published datasets to begin crafting your report.
To sum up, by following these steps you can proficiently connect your Facebook Pages data to PowerBI through Catchr, leading to enhanced visualization and data analysis capabilities beneficial for your marketing initiatives.
