  • The company was looking to share the automated COGS% email notifications to the stakeholders based on their data security.
  • The subscription feature of Power BI (powerbi) does not abide by data security(RLS) and generates email notifications that breach data authorization.
  • Also, Big Query, which was used as a data source does not support any feature to send an email as per the client’s business requirements.

The Business Solution

  • To overcome the above limitations of Power BI and Big Query, Apache Airflow was introduced for the solution.
  • Business logic was built with the Python Script that connected with Big Query custom views.
  • SendGrid API was leveraged to send notifications to users from GCP cloud composer (Apache Airflow)
  • The Job was scheduled with Airflow to send a daily email to users with data security(RLS)
  • The RLS data was stored in the tables through a front-end application and views were built on top of these.
  • These views were then utilized to control the alert content and email destination dynamically based on the data flowing through the user interface.
  • Python Script picks live data for COGS%, combine it with user security information, and sends the alerts using the latest data to destined users only.
  • End-users get alerts only for the access sites maintaining the data security precisely.
