Consolidate Data from 5 Sources for Automated Reporting with SQL, MongoDB & Google Tools

Description

How it works

This workflow consolidates data from five different systems — Google Sheets, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Microsoft SQL Server, and Google Analytics — into a single master Google Sheet. It runs on a scheduled trigger three times a week. Each dataset is tagged with a unique source identifier before merging, ensuring data traceability. Finally, the merged dataset is cleaned, standardized, and written into the output Google Sheet for reporting and analysis.

Step-by-step

1. Trigger the workflow
Schedule Trigger** – Runs the workflow at set weekly intervals.

2. Collect data from sources
Google Sheets Source** – Retrieves records from a specific sheet.
PostgreSQL Source** – Extracts customer data from the database.
MongoDB Source** – Pulls documents from the defined collection.
Microsoft SQL Server** – Executes a SQL query and returns results.
Google Analytics** – Captures user activity and engagement metrics.

3. Tag each dataset
Add Sheets Source ID** – Marks data from Google Sheets.
Add PostgreSQL Source ID** – Marks data from PostgreSQL.
Add MongoDB Source ID** – Marks data from MongoDB.
Add SQL Server Source ID** – Marks data from SQL Server.
Add Analytics Source ID** – Marks data from Google Analytics.

4. Merge and process
Merge** – Combines all tagged datasets into a single structure.
Process Merged Data** – Cleans, aligns schemas, and standardizes key fields.

5. Store consolidated output
Final Google Sheet** – Appends or updates the master sheet with the processed data.
