Viewing QuickBooks Online データ in RAD Studio Data Explorer

Embarcadero RAD Studio provides a development environment for Delphi and C++Builder applications. With the CData ODBC Driver for QuickBooks Online, you gain access to live QuickBooks Online データ within RAD Studio, abstracting the data into tables, views, and stored procedures that can be used to both retrieve and update QuickBooks Online データ. This article will walk through connecting to QuickBooks Online using the Data Explorer.

Configure a Connection to QuickBooks Online

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.

QuickBooks Online への接続にはOAuth 認証標準を使います。Embedded Credentials を使用すると、接続プロパティを設定せずに接続できます。接続すると、CData 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、アプリケーションにアクセス許可を与えるだけです。CData 製品がOAuth プロセスを完了します。

2. Right-click the ODBC Data Source node in the Data Explorer.
3. Click Add New Connection.
4. Enter a name for the connection.
5. In the FireDAC Connection Editor that appears, set the DataSource property to the name of the ODBC DSN for QuickBooks Online.
6. Back in the Data Explorer, expand the tables for the connection.

7. Create a new VCL Forms application and drag a table (for example: Customers) onto the form.

8. Select the CustomersTable object on the form and set the Active property to true.

9. Right-click on the object, bind visually, and link everything (*) to a new control (TStringGrid).

10. Arrange the TStringGrid on the form and run the application to see the Customers data.
