Connect to Authorize.Net Data and Transfer Data in Talend

This article shows how you can easily integrate the CData JDBC driver for Authorize.Net into your workflow in Talend. This article uses the CData JDBC Driver for Authorize.Net to transfer Authorize.Net data in a job flow in Talend.

Connect to Authorize.Net in Talend as a JDBC Data Source

You can follow the procedure below to establish a JDBC connection to Authorize.Net:

1. Add a new database connection to Authorize.Net data: To add a new connection, expand the Metadata node, right-click the Db Connections node, and then click Create Connection.
2. In the resulting wizard, enter a name for the connection.

3. On the next page, select Generic JDBC from the DB Type menu and enter the JDBC URL.

   You can obtain the necessary connection properties on the Security Settings -> General Settings page after logging into your Merchant Account.

   • UseSandbox: The Authorize.Net API to be used to process transactions. If you are using a production account, this property can be left blank. If you are using a developer test account, set this to 'TRUE'.
   • LoginID: The API login Id associated with your payment gateway account. This property is used to authenticate that you are authorized to submit website transactions. Note that this value is not the same as the login Id that you use to log in to the Merchant Interface.
   • TransactionKey: The transaction key associated with your payment gateway account. This property is used to authenticate that you are authorized to submit website transactions.

   Built-in Connection String Designer

   For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the Authorize.Net JDBC Driver. Either double-click the JAR file or execute the jar file from the command-line.

   java -jar cdata.jdbc.authorizenet.jar

   Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.

   A typical JDBC URL is below:

   jdbc:authorizenet:LoginId=MyLoginId;TransactionKey=MyTransactionKey;
4. Enter the path to the cdata.jdbc.authorizenet.jar file, located in the lib subfolder of the installation directory.
5. Right-click the connection and then click Retrieve Schema.
6. Click Next with the default options to select the tables you want to import.
7. Finish the wizard with the default options.

Output the SettledBatchList Table to a Flat File

You can follow the procedure below to transfer the SettledBatchList table to a flat file output component:

1. In the Table Schemas node, drag the tables to the workspace.
2. In the dialog that is displayed, select the tJDBCInput component.
3. Next, drag a tFileOutputDelimited component from the Business Intelligence tab of the Palette into the workspace.
4. Right-click the SettledBatchList tJDBCInput component and drag a vector to the output file.

Run the project to transfer the data.
