Live dashboards and automatic refresh
Peliqan keeps your Cin7 Omni data current on a schedule, so reports in Power BI Service refresh automatically without manual exports. Moreover, every report – from sales and margin dashboards to branch performance – runs on the same governed warehouse, so you work from one consistent source of truth.

No code or native connector needed
Cin7 Omni does not ship a native Power BI connector. Instead, Peliqan provides a managed Cin7 Omni-to-Power BI connector that handles the API, sync and data modelling, so you write and maintain no integration code. It works with Power BI Desktop, Power BI Service and Power BI Pro or Premium. You can also connect Tableau, Looker or Metabase to the same Power BI connector.
