Enrich data (for example leads or customers) with 3rd party data providers such as Clearbit, Hunter and others.

Peliqan offers a range of connectors to data enrichment APIs:

Company data (Clearbit, Hunter etc.)
Weather API
Geocoding API
Currency conversion API

Data enrichment can be used to enrich your data in your data warehouse, or even directly in your SaaS business applications (CRM, ERP etc.). For example you can clean up your customer data, add marketing information (company size, sector) and much more.

Data enrichment is also used for Machine Learning, in order to have enriched training data. Weather data is a good example. When you want to predict product sales, weather could be an important factor. Here’s an example using the weather API to get historic weather data or weather predictions:

The next step after getting a prediction, is to write that back into your data warehouse, e.g. using dw.update().

Data enrichment with “raw” API Calls

This example shows how to make “raw” API calls in your Python code, in case there is no connector available in Peliqan for the API that you want to use for your data enrichment.

import requests
import time

dbconn = pq.dbconnect('dw_123')
df = dbconn.fetch('dw_123', 'crm', 'companies', df=True)
st.dataframe(df)

for index, row in df.iterrows():
  st.text("Processing %s" % row["name"])

  if not row["country"]:
    url = "<https://companyenrichment.abstractapi.com/v1/?api_key=...&domain=%s>" % row["domain"]
    result = requests.get(url)
    if "country" in result.json():
      country = result.json()["country"]
      st.text("Updating country: %s" % country)

      update_response = pq.update_cell(
         table_name = "companies", 
         field_name = "country", 
         row_id = row["id"],  # must be value from primary key column
         value = country)
    
    time.sleep(2) #avoid rate limiting

if st.button("Rerun"):
  st.experimental_rerun()
