Build a Simple VCL Application for Kintone データ

How to build a simple VCL Application to view Kintone データ in RAD Studio using the CData ODBC Driver for Kintone.

最終更新日：2023-06-12

Embarcadero RAD Studio provides a development environment for Delphi and C++Builder applications. With the CData ODBC Driver for Kintone, you gain access to live Kintone データ within RAD Studio, abstracting the data into tables, views, and stored procedures that can be used to retrieve and update Kintone データ. This article will walk through connecting to Kintone and creating a simple VCL application with the Form Designer.

Create a Connection to Kintone データ

If you have not already, first specify connection properties in an ODBC DSN (data source name). This is the last step of the driver installation. You can use the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to create and configure ODBC DSNs.

Kintone 接続プロパティの設定方法

Kintone に接続するには、以下の接続プロパティを設定する必要があります。

URL：Kintone のアクセスURL（例：https://yoursitename.cybozu.com または https://yoursitename.kintone.com）
User：アカウントのユーザー名
Password：アカウントのパスワード
AuthScheme：Password を指定

パスワード認証の代わりにAPI トークン認証を利用する場合は、ヘルプドキュメントの「接続の設定」セクションをご参照ください。

Basic 認証の設定

ご利用のKintone ドメインでBasic 認証を有効にしている場合は、接続プロパティの「詳細」設定で以下の項目を追加設定してください。

BasicAuthUser：Basic認証のユーザー名
BasicAuthPassword：Basic認証のパスワード

クライアント証明書認証の設定

Basic認証の代わりにクライアント証明書による認証を利用する場合は、以下の項目を設定してください。

SSLClientCert：クライアント証明書のパス
SSLClientCertType：証明書の種類
SSLClientCertSubject：証明書のサブジェクト
SSLClientCertPassword：証明書のパスワード

You can then follow the steps below to use the Data Explorer to create a FireDAC connection to Kintone データ.

In a new VCL Forms application, expand the FireDAC node in the Data Explorer.
Right-click the ODBC Data Source node in the Data Explorer.
Click Add New Connection.
Enter a name for the connection.
In the FireDAC Connection Editor that appears, set the DataSource property to the name of the ODBC DSN for Kintone.

Create VCL Applications with Connectivity to Kintone データ

Follow the procedure below to start executing queries to Kintone データ from a simple VCL application that displays the results of a query in a grid.

Drop a TFDConnection component onto the form and set the following properties:
- ConnectionDefName: Select the FireDAC connection to Kintone データ.
- Connected: Select True from the menu and, in the dialog that appears, enter your credentials.
Drop a TFDQuery component onto the form and set the properties below:
- Connection: Set this property to the TFDConnection component, if this component is not already specified.
- SQL: Click the button in the SQL property and enter a query. For example:
  SELECT Name, Description FROM Apps
- Active: Set this property to true.
Drop a TDataSource component onto the form and set the following property:
- DataSet: In the menu for this property, select the name of the TFDQuery component.
Drop a TDBGrid control onto the form and set the following property:
- DataSource: Select the name of the TDataSource.
Drop a TFDGUIxWaitCursor onto the form — this is required to avoid a run-time error.
