What is Copper?

Copper is a CRM built for Google Workspace that tracks people, companies, leads, and sales opportunities through a pipeline.

clariBI reads Copper through its REST API using your own API key and account email: opportunities, people, companies, and leads. Access is read-only, and clariBI never edits a record in your CRM.

How to connect Copper

  1. Open Data Sources in clariBI. In clariBI, go to Data SourcesAdd Data Source, find Copper, and enter your API key (Settings → API Keys) and the account email the key belongs to. The key is Fernet-encrypted at rest.
  2. Choose the records to sync. Pick the objects to pull (opportunities, people, companies, leads). clariBI reads them read-only.
  3. Sync, then get dashboards. clariBI syncs the records, preprocesses them, and builds an insights dashboard. Ask "How is the pipeline trending by stage?" and the AI engine queries the synced CRM data alongside your revenue.

What you can analyze

  • Opportunities created over time
  • Pipeline value and count by stage
  • New people and companies per week
  • Open and won opportunities by owner
  • Records by lead source or tag
  • Cross-source: pipeline → closed revenue → forecast

What gets synced

clariBI pulls the records you select through the Copper REST API, lands them as a preprocessed dataset, and refreshes them on your schedule. Access is read-only.

For each selected object, clariBI syncs the records with their creation dates, stages, owners, and values, then builds an insights dashboard you can query, extend, or pull into reports.

clariBI only ever reads. It never edits a record in Copper.

Questions across your other data

Once your records are synced, the AI engine can join them to the rest of your business data. A few examples:
