Access SAP Hybris C4C Data in Mule Applications Using the CData JDBC Driver



Create a simple Mule Application that uses HTTP and SQL with the CData JDBC Driver for SAP Hybris C4C to create a JSON endpoint for SAP Hybris C4C data.

The CData JDBC Driver for SAP Hybris C4C connects SAP Hybris C4C data to Mule applications enabling read , write, update, and delete functionality with familiar SQL queries. The JDBC Driver allows users to easily create Mule applications to backup, transform, report, and analyze SAP Hybris C4C data.

This article demonstrates how to use the CData JDBC Driver for SAP Hybris C4C inside of a Mule project to create a Web interface for SAP Hybris C4C data. The application created allows you to request SAP Hybris C4C data using an HTTP request and have the results returned as JSON. The exact same procedure outlined below can be used with any CData JDBC Driver to create a Web interface for the 200+ available data sources.

  1. Create a new Mule Project in Anypoint Studio.
  2. Add an HTTP Connector to the Message Flow.
  3. Configure the address for the HTTP Connector.
  4. Add a Database Select Connector to the same flow, after the HTTP Connector.
  5. Create a new Connection (or edit an existing one) and configure the properties.
    • Set Connection to "Generic Connection"
    • Select the CData JDBC Driver JAR file in the Required Libraries section (e.g. cdata.jdbc.saphybrisc4c.jar).
    • Set the URL to the connection string for SAP Hybris C4C

      SAP Hybris Cloud for Customer uses basic authentication. Set the User and Password to your login credentials.

      Built-in Connection String Designer

      For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the SAP Hybris C4C JDBC Driver. Either double-click the JAR file or execute the jar file from the command-line.

      java -jar cdata.jdbc.saphybrisc4c.jar

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

    • Set the Driver class name to cdata.jdbc.saphybrisc4c.SAPHybrisC4CDriver.
    • Click Test Connection.
  6. Set the SQL Query Text to a SQL query to request SAP Hybris C4C data. For example: SELECT ObjectID, AccountName FROM AccountCollection
  7. Add a Transform Message Component to the flow.
  8. Set the Output script to the following to convert the payload to JSON:
    %dw 2.0
    output application/json
    ---
    payload
            
  9. To view your SAP Hybris C4C data, navigate to the address you configured for the HTTP Connector (localhost:8081 by default): http://localhost:8081. The SAP Hybris C4C data is available as JSON in your Web browser and any other tools capable of consuming JSON endpoints.

At this point, you have a simple Web interface for working with SAP Hybris C4C data (as JSON data) in custom apps and a wide variety of BI, reporting, and ETL tools. Download a free, 30 day trial of the JDBC Driver for SAP Hybris C4C and see the CData difference in your Mule Applications today.
