How to integrate Microsoft Dynamics 365 with Google Data Studio

Being able to interpret your marketing data effectively is one thing, but having the ability to connect it all in the right space is another.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Google Data Studio can thankfully be integrated, so data becomes accessible to analyse - direct from its source, Dynamics CRM.

There are many benefits to syncing your data into Google Data Studio:

  • It allows you to import data from various sources and platforms, from Google Ads and Analytics, to Youtube - as well as the key CRM tools you use within your business. This means you can access all-encompassing reports of your data in Google Data Studio, without having to use multiple other tools.
  • Google Data Studio is designed to make customising reports simple, meaning they’re easy to read with effective visualisations.
  • Added widgets enable you to break down data into accessible and informative chunks, with endless graphs, pie charts, and data representation methods. Doing this means analysing your data and interpreting the results of marketing campaigns becomes simple.
  • Google Data Studio is free!

The first step towards accessing these benefits is to integrate the two apps, so your data from Microsoft Dynamics is available in Data Studio. However, integrating the two is complicated, and there are more effective ways to do it without all the added steps.

Here’s our guide on how you can easily integrate Microsoft Dynamics 365 with Google Data Studio.

Although Dynamics 365 is an unparalleled marketing tool on many levels, it can’t do it all on its own.
