How to connect to Oracle Service Cloud Data from IntelliJ



Integrate connectivity to Oracle Service Cloud data with wizards in IntelliJ.

The CData JDBC Driver for Oracle Service Cloud enables you to access Oracle Service Cloud as a JDBC data source, providing integration with rapid development tools in IDEs. This article shows how to use the data source configuration wizard to connect to Oracle Service Cloud data in IntelliJ.

Create a JBDC Data Source for Oracle Service Cloud

Follow the steps below to add the driver JAR and define connection properties required to connect to Oracle Service Cloud data.

  1. In the Data Sources window, right-click and then click Add Data Source -> DB Data Source.
  2. In the Data Source Properties dialog that appears, the following properties are required:

    • JDBC Driver Files: Click the button next to this menu to add the JDBC Driver file cdata.jdbc.oracleservicecloud.jar, located in the installation directory.
    • JDBC Driver Class: In this menu, select cdata.jdbc.oracleservicecloud.OracleServiceCloudDriver from the list.
    • Database URL: Enter the connection URL in the JDBC URL property. The URL must start with jdbc:oracleservicecloud: and includes connection properties separated with semicolons.

      Using Basic Authentication

      You must set the following to authenticate to Oracle Service Cloud:

      • Url: The Url of the account to connect to.
      • User: The username of the authenticating account.
      • Password: The password of the authenticating account.

      Built-in Connection String Designer

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

      java -jar cdata.jdbc.oracleservicecloud.jar

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

      A typical JDBC URL is the following:

      jdbc:oracleservicecloud:Url=https://abc.rightnowdemo.com;User=user;Password=password;

Edit and Save Oracle Service Cloud Data

To discover schema information, right-click the data source you just created and click Refresh Tables. To query a table, right-click it and then click Open Tables Editor. You can also modify records in the Table Editor.
