DataBind ActiveCampaign Data to the DevExpress Data Grid


Use the CData ADO.NET Provider for ActiveCampaign with the DevExpress Windows Forms and Web controls to provide ActiveCampaign data to a chart.

The ADO.NET Provider for ActiveCampaign by CData incorporates conventional ADO.NET data access components compatible with third-party controls. You can adhere to the standard ADO.NET data binding procedures to establish two-way access to real-time data through UI controls. This article will demonstrate the utilization of CData components for data binding with DevExpress UI Controls (Windows Forms and Web controls), specifically binding to a chart that visualizes live data.

ActiveCampaign supports authenticating with the API Key. To connect to ActiveCampaign, set the following:

  • URL: This can be found in your account on the My Settings page under the Developer tab. For example: https://{yourAccountName}.api-us1.com
  • APIKey: This can be found in your account on the Settings page under the Developer tab. Each user in your ActiveCampaign account has their own unique API key.

Windows Forms Controls

The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress chart with ActiveCampaign data. The ActiveCampaignDataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart control. The Diagram property of the control defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.

using (ActiveCampaignConnection connection = new ActiveCampaignConnection( "URL=yourUrl;APIKey=yourApiKey")) { ActiveCampaignDataAdapter dataAdapter = new ActiveCampaignDataAdapter( "SELECT LastName, Email FROM Contacts WHERE LastName = 'Smith'", connection); DataTable table = new DataTable(); dataAdapter.Fill(table); DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series(); chartControl1.Series.Add(series); series.DataSource = table; series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "Email" }); series.ArgumentScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Qualitative; series.ArgumentDataMember = "LastName"; series.ValueScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Numerical; chartControl1.Legend.Visibility = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.False; ((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true; }

Web Controls

The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress Web control with ActiveCampaign data. The ActiveCampaignDataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart; the Diagram property defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.

using DevExpress.XtraCharts; using (ActiveCampaignConnection connection = new ActiveCampaignConnection( "URL=yourUrl;APIKey=yourApiKey")) { ActiveCampaignDataAdapter ActiveCampaignDataAdapter1 = new ActiveCampaignDataAdapter("SELECT LastName, Email FROM Contacts WHERE LastName = 'Smith'", connection); DataTable table = new DataTable(); ActiveCampaignDataAdapter1.Fill(table); DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new Series("Series1", ViewType.Bar); WebChartControl1.Series.Add(series); series.DataSource = table; series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "Email" }); series.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Qualitative; series.ArgumentDataMember = "LastName"; series.ValueScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical; ((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true; }
