How does the integration between Metabase and Microsoft Power BI work in WEXTL?
WEXTL exposes actions and triggers for Metabase and Microsoft Power BI that help you connect apps and automate repetitive tasks [1]. A trigger is an event that happens, an action — a step that performs when the event has occurred.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting Metabase and Microsoft Power BI.
Connect your Metabase and Microsoft Power BI accounts once, pick a trigger in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: when Metabase's "Watch Alert Notification" fires, WEXTL can "Add a Dataset Row in Group" in Microsoft Power BI. Metabase has 1 trigger (including Watch Alert Notification); Microsoft Power BI has 116 actions (including Add a Dataset Row in Group, Add a Dataset Rows, and Add Group User). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — the integration works in both directions. Use each app's triggers to start a workflow and the other app's actions to update it. [2]
No. Metabase-to-Microsoft Power BI automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment Metabase (or Microsoft Power BI) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your Metabase + Microsoft Power BI automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
