Microsoft Power BI has Deprecated the QuickBooks Connector: Next Steps to Maintain Connectivity

Microsoft’s planned deprecation of the QuickBooks Online connector in Power BI, with service visibility ending in June 2025 and Power BI Desktop support removed in July 2025, may disrupt dashboards, scheduled reports, and real-time accounting-data workflows for many users. The promotional text presents CData Connect AI as an alternative that connects QuickBooks Online to Power BI through the Get Data experience without locally installed drivers, while supporting automatic refreshes, custom reusable views, and SQL exploration in its Data Explorer. It also emphasizes the ability to combine QuickBooks data with CRM, ERP, and other business systems, and to use the data in tools beyond Power BI, such as automation platforms and AI assistants. Users are advised to authenticate QuickBooks in Connect AI, configure optional custom views, connect Power BI to the service, and continue building or refreshing dashboards, with a 14-day trial offered for evaluation.
