Prerequisites

• A Quire account
• An n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud)
• Administrative access to your n8n instance

Installation

First, you will need to create a Quire app that will provide the necessary authentication credentials to access Quire’s API.

You can follow this comprehensive tutorial on our blog.

Then set the Redirect URL to the below URL in your Quire app settings.

https://your-n8n-instance.com/rest/oauth2-credential/callback

Note: Do NOT activate “Public Distribution” if this app is for personal use only, as this will make your app visible in the Quire App Directory.

Next, you will need to install the Quire node in n8n. Click your user icon in the button left corner of n8n and select Settings.

​​

Navigate to the Community Nodes tab to manage community node installations.

​​

Enter the npm package name @quire-io/n8n-nodes-quire and click Install.

Power BI

Power BI integration is only available in the Enterprise plan. More information can be found on our pricing page.

Power BI takes your Quire data to the next level. By turning your projects, tasks, and workflows into interactive visuals, your team can uncover insights, identify opportunities, and make smarter decisions with confidence.

With Power BI, project managers can easily connect Quire as a data source to create real-time dashboards that tell a complete, data-backed story of the team’s progress.

​​

Here’s how you can set up connections between Power BI and Quire.

Prerequisites

• Power BI desktop
• Quire connector beta file: please email info@quire.io to get the beta file.

Configuration

Once you have the file, open Power BI Desktop and navigate to File > Options and settings > Options > Security.

​​

Under the Security settings, locate the Data Extensions section and set it to (Not recommended) Allow any extension to load without validation or warning.

Installation

Go to your Documents folder and create a new directory called Power BI Desktop\Custom Connectors if it doesn’t already exist. Place the QuirePBI_BETA.mez file into this folder.

The standard file path on Windows is C:\Users\YourName\Documents\Power BI Desktop\Custom Connectors\QuirePowerBI_BETA.mez. If your Documents folder is in a different location, simply adjust the path accordingly. After placing the file, restart Power BI Desktop to enable the connector.

Retrieve data

When Power BI restarts, go to Home > Get Data > More….

Navigate to Other > Quire (Beta) (Custom) or search for “Quire” in the search bar.

Choose Connect to begin setting up your connection. If this is your first time connecting or your token has expired, you’ll be prompted to sign in. You can either sign in directly or use a different account if necessary.

The Quire API authorization page will then appear. Here, you can choose to authorize access to a specific organization or project, or grant Power BI permission to access all organizations and projects you have access to.

Once you’ve made your selection, click Allow and then Connect to start retrieving data.

After the connection is established, select the project you want to analyze and choose the data tables relevant to your report. In most cases, the Raw Data table isn’t required since it’s less structured for relationship building. Regular tables, on the other hand, are more convenient for connecting and organizing data when creating visual reports.

Once your selections are made, click Load to begin importing your data into Power BI.

Build a dashboard

Once your data is ready, you can start creating a dashboard in Power BI. The data from Quire is organized into separate tables for easy access and selection. Simply check the boxes next to the tables you want to include, then click Load to import them. If needed, you can also transform or clean the data beforehand to better align it with your reporting goals.

After loading, your Quire task data will begin syncing with Power BI. Depending on the size of your team or the number of projects, this process may take anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes. Once the data appears, you can start building your dashboard by using the fields in the right-hand panel. Drag and drop data into charts, tables, or other visuals to create an interactive and insightful overview of your projects.
