Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure the following prerequisites are met:

SSIS designer installed. Sometimes it is referred as BIDS or SSDT (download it from Microsoft).
Basic knowledge of SSIS package development using Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services.
SSIS PowerPack is installed (if you are new to SSIS PowerPack, then get started!).

Read data from Stripe in SSIS (Export data)

In this section we will learn how to configure and use Stripe Connector in API Source to extract data from Stripe.

Begin with opening Visual Studio and Create a New Project.
Select Integration Service Project and in new project window set the appropriate name and location for project. And click OK.

In the new SSIS project screen you will find the following:
- SSIS ToolBox on left side bar

- Connection Manager Window in the bottom
Note: If you don't see ZappySys SSIS PowerPack Task or Components in SSIS Toolbox, please refer to this help link.
Now, Drag and Drop SSIS Data Flow Task from SSIS Toolbox. Double click on the Data Flow Task to see Data Flow designer.
From the SSIS toolbox drag and API Source (Predefined Templates) on the data flow designer surface, and double click on it to edit it:
Select New Connection to create a new connection:
Use a preinstalled Stripe Connector from Popular Connector List or press Search Online radio button to download Stripe Connector. Once downloaded simply use it in the configuration:

Now it's time to configure authentication. Firstly, configure authentication settings in Stripe service and then proceed by configuring API Connection Manager. Start by expanding an authentication type:

Stripe

Stripe authentication

Login into your Stripe account
Go to https://dashboard.stripe.com/apikeys.
Then create a Secret key.
In the parameter 'Token' fill in newly created key.

API Connection Manager configuration

Just perform these simple steps to finish authentication configuration:

Set Authentication Type to Stripe [Http]
Optional step. Modify API Base URL if needed (in most cases default will work).
Fill in all the required parameters and set optional parameters if needed.
Finally, hit OK button:

Stripe

Stripe [Http]

https://api.stripe.com/v1

Required Parameters
Token	Fill-in the parameter...
Optional Parameters
RetryMode	RetryWhenStatusCodeMatch
RetryStatusCodeList	429
RetryCountMax	5
RetryMultiplyWaitTime	True

Select the desired endpoint, change/pass the properties values, and click on Preview Data button to make the API call.

API Source - Stripe

Read and write Stripe data effortlessly. Manage customers, products, subscriptions, and invoices — almost no coding required.
That's it! We are done! Just in a few clicks we configured the call to Stripe using Stripe Connector.

You can load the source data into your desired destination using the Upsert Destination , which supports SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and Amazon Redshift. We also offer other destinations such as CSV , Excel , Azure Table , Salesforce , and more . You can check out our SSIS PowerPack Tasks and components for more options.

Step-by-step instructions

In upper section we learned how to read data, now in this section we will learn how to configure Stripe in the API Source to POST data to the Stripe.

Begin with opening Visual Studio and Create a New Project.
Select Integration Service Project and in new project window set the appropriate name and location for project. And click OK.

In the new SSIS project screen you will find the following:
- SSIS ToolBox on left side bar
- Solution Explorer and Property Window on right bar
- Control flow, data flow, event Handlers, Package Explorer in tab windows
- Connection Manager Window in the bottom
Note: If you don't see ZappySys SSIS PowerPack Task or Components in SSIS Toolbox, please refer to this help link.
Now, Drag and Drop SSIS Data Flow Task from SSIS Toolbox. Double click on the Data Flow Task to see Data Flow designer.
Read the data from the source, using any desired source component. You can even make an API call using the ZappySys JSON/XML/API Source and read data from there. In this example, we will use an OLE DB Source component to read real-time data from a SQL Server database.
From the SSIS Toolbox drag and drop API Destination (Predefined Templates) on the Data Flow Designer surface and connect source component with it, and double click to edit it.
Select New Connection to create a new connection:

Read and write Stripe data effortlessly. Manage customers, products, subscriptions, and invoices — almost no coding required.
To configure the Stripe connector, choose one of the following methods:
- Choose from Popular Connector List: Select a pre-installed service directly from the dropdown menu.
- Search Online: Use this to find and download a new connector file to your computer.
- Use Saved/Downloaded File: Once the file is downloaded, browse your local drive to load it into the configuration.
After that, just click Continue >>:

Proceed with selecting the desired Authentication Type. Then select API Base URL (in most cases default one is the right one). Finally, fill in all the required parameters and set optional parameters if needed. You may press a link Steps to Configure which will help set certain parameters. More info is available in Authentication section.

Load Stripe data into SQL Server using Upsert Destination (Insert or Update)

Once you configured the data source, you can load Stripe data into SQL Server using Upsert Destination.

Upsert Destination can merge or synchronize source data with the target table. It supports Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and Redshift databases as targets. Upsert Destination also supports very fast bulk upsert operation along with bulk delete.

Upsert operation - a database operation which performs INSERT or UPDATE SQL commands based on record's existence condition in the target table. It inserts records that don't have matching records in the target table or updates them, if they do, by matching them by key columns.

Upsert Destination supports INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE operations, so it is similar to SQL Server's MERGE command, except it can be used directly in SSIS package.

From the SSIS Toolbox drag-and-drop Upsert Destination component onto the Data Flow designer background.
Connect your SSIS source component to Upsert Destination.
Double-click on Upsert Destination component to open configuration window.
Start by selecting the Action from the list.
Next, select the desired target connection or create one by clicking <New [provider] Connection> menu item from the Target Connection dropdown.
Then select a table from the Target Table list or click New button to create a new table based on the source columns.
Continue by checking Insert and Update options according to your scenario (e.g. if Update option is unchecked, no updates will be made).
Finally, click Map All button to map all columns and then select the Key columns to match the columns on:
Click OK to save the configuration.
Run the package and Stripe data will be merged with the target table in SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or Redshift:
Done!

Deploy and schedule SSIS package

After you are done creating SSIS package, most likely, you want to deploy it to SQL Server Catalog and run it periodically. Just follow the instructions in this article:
