Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online integration

Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Data & Storage, Development, and Finance & Accounting workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online

  • Step 1: Create a new workflow
  • Step 2: Add and configure nodes
  • Step 3: Connect
  • Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
  • Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Step 2: Add and configure Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online nodes

You can find Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online in the nodes panel. Drag them onto your workflow canvas, selecting their actions. Click each node, choose a credential, and authenticate to grant n8n access. Configure Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.

Step 3: Connect Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online

A connection establishes a link between Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.

Step 4: Customize and extend your Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online integration

Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect Google BigQuery and QuickBooks Online with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.

Weekly ETL pipeline: QuickBooks financial data to Google BigQuery

This template sets up a weekly ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipeline that pulls financial data from QuickBooks Online into Google BigQuery. It not only transfers data, but also cleans, classifies, and enriches each transaction using your own business logic.

Who It's For
Data Analysts & BI Developers**
Need structured financial data in a warehouse to build dashboards (e.g., Looker Studio, Tableau) and run complex queries.
Financial Analysts & Accountants**
Want to run custom SQL queries beyond QuickBooks’ native capabilities.
Business Owners**
Need a permanent, historical archive of transactions for reporting and tracking.

What the Workflow Does

  1. Extract
    Fetches transactions from the previous week every Monday from your QuickBooks Online account.
  2. Transform
    Applies custom business logic:
    Cleans up text fields
    Generates stable transaction IDs
    Classifies transactions (income, expense, internal transfer)
  3. Format
    Prepares the cleaned data as a bulk-insert-ready SQL statement.
  4. Load
    Inserts the structured and enriched data into a Google BigQuery table.

Setup Guide

  1. Prepare BigQuery
    Create a dataset (e.g., quickbooks) and table (e.g., transactions)
    The table schema must match the SQL query in the "Load Data to BigQuery" node
  2. Add Credentials
    Add QuickBooks Online and Google BigQuery credentials to your n8n instance
  3. Configure Business Logic
    Open the Clean & Classify Transactions node
    Update the JavaScript arrays:
    internalTransferAccounts
    expenseCategories
    incomeCategories
    Ensure these match your QuickBooks Chart of Accounts exactly
  4. Configure BigQuery Node
    Open the Load Data to BigQuery node
    Select the correct Google Cloud project
    Ensure the SQL query references the correct dataset and table
  5. Activate the Workflow
    Save and activate it
    The workflow will now run weekly

Requirements
A running n8n instance (Cloud or Self-Hosted)
A QuickBooks Online account
A Google Cloud Platform project with BigQuery enabled
A BigQuery table with a matching schema

Customization Options
Change Schedule**: Modify the schedule node to run daily, monthly, or at a different time
Adjust Date Range**: Change the date macro in the Get Last Week's Transactions node
Refine Classification Rules**: Add custom logic in the Clean & Classify Transactions node to handle specific edge cases
