Hi everyone! 👋 I'm Emma, and I'm so glad I found this community. I work in HR Tech, specifically focusing on employee onboarding and performance management. My days are spent evaluating tools for people analytics, engagement surveys, learning platforms, and OKRs—anything that helps make work better, especially for remote teams.
I’m currently hitting a wall with a data integration issue that feels like it should be simple. I'm trying to get our sales pipeline data from Pipedrive into our main BI tool (Looker, in this case) for a unified people & performance dashboard. The goal is to correlate sales team activity with their engagement and development data. But the native connector just… isn’t working reliably. The sync fails or fields are missing.
* Has anyone successfully built a stable pipeline from Pipedrive to a BI tool?
* Did you use a third-party connector (like Zapier/Make), a custom API script, or something else?
* What were the biggest pitfalls to avoid?
I'm really hoping to find (and contribute!) practical posts about underrated tools and quick-win integrations that save everyone a headache. I love when someone shares a specific "how we fixed this" workflow. Excited to learn from you all!
