Connect to Microsoft Dataverse from a Connection Pool in WebLogic

こんにちは！ドライバー周りのヘルプドキュメントを担当している古川です。

The CData JDBC Driver for CDS enables you to follow standard procedures to integrate Microsoft Dataverse データ into Java Web applications. This article shows how to deploy the CData JDBC Driver for CDS in WebLogic server.

Install the JDBC Driver in WebLogic Server

Add the driver JAR and license file to the classpath your application will be using. The .lic file must be located in the same folder as the JAR. These files are located in the lib subfolder of the installation directory.

If you want to add the driver to all domains, add the JAR to the WEBLOGIC_CLASSPATH environment variable. add the following line to the commEnv.cmd/sh script in WL_HOME\common\bin\.

If you want to add the driver to a specific domain, you will need to add the JAR to the PRE_CLASSPATH environment variable. Add the following line to the setDomainEnv.cmd/sh script in the bin subfolder of the folder for that domain:

Create a JDBC Data Source for CDS

After installing the driver, create the connection.

1. In the Domain Structure tree, click Services -> Data Sources -> New -> Generic Data Source.
2. On the JDBC Data Source Properties page, enter the following information:
   • Name: Enter a user-friendly name; for example, cdsjdbc.
   • JDBC Name: Enter the path the JDBC data source will be bound to; for example, jdbc/CDS.
   • Database Type: Select Other.

3. Click Next to use the default options. On the last page, enter the following information and click Test Configuration:

   • Driver Class Name: Enter the driver class, cdata.jdbc.cds.CDSDriver, in this property.

   • URL: Enter the JDBC URL. A typical JDBC URL is below:

     jdbc:cds:OrganizationUrl=https://myaccount.crm.dynamics.com/

     ユーザー資格情報の接続プロパティを設定せずに接続できます。接続に最小限必要な接続プロパティは、以下のとおりです。

     • InitiateOAuth: GETANDREFRESH に設定します。
     • OrganizationUrl: 接続先の組織のURL、例えばhttps://organization.crm.dynamics.com などに設定。
     • Tenant (optional): デフォルトと異なるテナントに認証したい場合は、これを設定します。これは、デフォルトのテナントに所属していない組織と連携するために必要です。

     接続すると、本製品はデフォルトブラウザでOAuth エンドポイントを開きます。ログインして、本製品にアクセス許可を与えます。本製品がOAuth プロセスを完了します。

   • Database User Name: Enter the username, if not specified in the JDBC URL.
   • Password: Enter the password, if not specified in the JDBC URL.

After selecting the server where you want to deploy the JDBC data source, you can now connect to Microsoft Dataverse データ.

More WebLogic Integration

The steps above show how configure the driver in a simple connection pooling scenario. For more use cases and information, see the JDBC sections in the WebLogic Data Sources chapter of the Oracle Fusion Middleware documentation.
