Why teams connect Microsoft Power Bi and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

Give Microsoft Power Bi the users, events, and records that live in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) in real time, and sync the cohorts and scores Microsoft Power Bi computes back into OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) where your applications read them.

Microsoft Power Bi is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into OCI Database (Oracle Cloud), so OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) always reflects the current state of Microsoft Power Bi — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

A database holds the rows your business runs on: the users, events, orders, and records that every service reads and writes. Microsoft Power Bi is where people make sense of them, as dashboards, funnels, cohorts, and metrics. Moving the data from OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) into Microsoft Power Bi usually means a hand-built extract or a change-data-capture pipeline that breaks the moment a column is renamed, and reporting that always trails last night's load.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror Workspaces, Reports, Dashboards, and Dataset metadata into a catalog database so teams discover Power BI content from a central index.
  • 02 Pull Dataflow and Datasource definitions to document lineage between Power BI and its upstream warehouses in a governance database.
  • 03 Run on-prem Oracle and OCI side by side during a cloud migration while keeping both ends writable.
  • 04 Expose ERP or billing data held in OCI to internal tools by syncing selected schemas to a managed Postgres.

Common sync patterns

Where Microsoft Power Bi builds cohorts or scores: results your services can read

Segments, cohorts, or scores computed in Microsoft Power Bi sync back into OCI Database (Oracle Cloud), where the services that read from the database act on them at query speed without calling the analytics API.

Analytics on live operational data, minus the pipeline

The users, events, orders, and records stored in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) land in Microsoft Power Bi as they change, so dashboards, funnels, and metrics run on current data instead of last night's extract.

One version of each user or account

A user, account, or record corrected in either system updates the other, so the identity your reports group by matches the identity your database stores.

What you can sync between Microsoft Power Bi and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Microsoft Power Bi objects OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) objects How this pairing syncs
Activity Events (Audit Log) Admin audit log of user and content actions read via GET /admin/activityevents; loaded for security, access, and usage reporting across the tenant. PL/SQL procedures and packages Server-side logic that can react to synced data or transform it in place Activity Events (Audit Log) is specific to Microsoft Power Bi and PL/SQL procedures and packages to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Access Workspace users and roles read via GET /groups/{id}/users or the admin scanner APIs; read for access reviews and identity reconciliation against an IdP. JSON collections Document-style storage in the converged engine, synced alongside relational tables Users and Access is specific to Microsoft Power Bi and JSON collections to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Datasets (Semantic Models) Tabular models behind reports; their rows are read with DAX via POST datasets/{id}/executeQueries, and datasource and refresh metadata via REST list endpoints. Partitions Physical table subdivisions relevant when replicating large fact tables Datasets (Semantic Models) is specific to Microsoft Power Bi and Partitions to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reports Report definitions and metadata read via GET /reports and per-workspace GET /groups/{id}/reports; enumerated to mirror the content inventory into a catalog. Tables The primary sync surface; rows are read and written directly over SQL Reports is specific to Microsoft Power Bi and Tables to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Dashboards and Tiles Dashboards and their pinned tiles read via GET /dashboards and /dashboards/{id}/tiles; inventoried to map dashboard content back to its source datasets. Views Read-only projections used to expose curated subsets to downstream systems Dashboards and Tiles is specific to Microsoft Power Bi and Views to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Dataflows Power Query ETL definitions read via GET /groups/{id}/dataflows; used to document lineage from upstream sources into datasets. Materialized views Precomputed result sets sometimes used as stable read sources for replication Dataflows is specific to Microsoft Power Bi and Materialized views to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Microsoft Power Bi and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Microsoft Power Bi OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Microsoft Power Bi for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Pull-based: no webhooks or change-data-capture.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) Microsoft Power Bi Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC from redo logs (LogMiner or GoldenGate), or timestamp polling.

DeliveryMicrosoft Power Bi does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Microsoft Power Bi's output flows back as field updates on the originating OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Microsoft Power Bi: Endpoints throttle per user and per app and return HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header. Execute Queries allows up to 120 requests per minute per user and caps a query at 100,000 rows (or 1,000,000 values) and 15 MB; admin scanner metadata APIs are limited to about 500 requests per hour with 16 concurrent.
  • OCI Database (Oracle Cloud): Throughput bounded by instance sizing rather than API quotas.

How the Microsoft Power Bi and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) connectors work

Microsoft Power Bi

Integration surface
Power BI REST API, including the Execute Queries (DAX) endpoint and admin scanner APIs; a read-write XMLA endpoint is available on Premium, Premium-Per-User, and Fabric capacity.
Authentication
Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens. Supports delegated user tokens and app-only service principals; service principals must be enabled under the tenant's Developer settings and granted workspace access. Tenant-wide admin reads require the Tenant.Read.All scope.
Change detection
Pull-based: no webhooks or change-data-capture. Content is polled via REST list endpoints, dataset changes are inferred from Refresh History and the admin Activity Events audit log, and the scanner API's GetModifiedWorkspaces reports workspaces changed since a given time.
