Did you know that Hoowla’s API enables direct connectivity between your case management data and Microsoft Power BI? This integration allows legal professionals and conveyancers to link their case management software with Power BI, facilitating the creation of real-time interactive dashboards, charts, and reports. By using this connection, firms can gain deeper insights into their cases, track key performance indicators, simplify reporting, and more, all within a single, easy-to-use dashboard.
APIs, or Application Programming Interfaces, act as connectors between different software applications, ensuring smooth communication and data exchange. Through APIs, law firms can automate workflows, enhance system interoperability, and eliminate the need for manual data transfers or duplicate entries. Hoowla’s API is designed to provide effortless access to case management data, making it simple to integrate with Power BI and other business intelligence tools.

Microsoft Power BI is an online business intelligence tool that enables users to analyse data, create interactive reports, and visualise key performance metrics. Firms can gain immediate insights into their operations with real-time data syncing without relying on manual data updates.
Hoowla gives firms complete control over their data, offering flexibility to generate reports, conduct regular backups, or present data for compliance purposes. Unlike some cloud-based and traditional case management software, which may lack real-time syncing capabilities, Hoowla ensures that Power BI is always up to date without requiring manual interventions.
Firms already using Power BI or similar tools without Hoowla integration often have to export and upload data for analysis manually. While this method works, it does not support real-time data updates and can consume significant time. Hoowla’s API and Webhooks eliminate this issue by providing an automated, direct connection, ensuring that data remains current without the need for frequent user input.
“With Hoowla’s API and Webhooks, firms can access real-time analytics to make well-informed decisions,” said Adam Curtis, CEO of Hoowla. “Once integrated with Power BI, minimal maintenance is required, allowing firms to focus on their core work without worrying about ongoing updates or data management.”
Hoowla’s in-built reporting tools already enable firms to create customised reports tailored to their needs, providing insight into case progress, workload distribution, and key performance metrics. However, integrating Power BI takes this a step further by presenting data in an engaging and interactive format. Dynamic charts and visual dashboards allow firm leaders to quickly identify trends, assess financial performance, and make strategic, data-driven decisions.
For nearly 12 years, Hoowla case management software has been the trusted choice for hundreds of firms looking to embrace modern technology. Designed for law firms seeking efficiency, flexibility, and smooth integration, Hoowla offers a platform that enhances legal operations rather than complicating them.
APIs require technical expertise, and many firms outsource integration projects. To optimise costs, we recommend planning out how you intend to use these tools before engaging a developer. Our team can assist you throughout the process to ensure a smooth implementation.
