Load Authorize.Net Data to a Database Using Embulk


Use CData JDBC drivers with the open source ETL/ELT tool Embulk to load Authorize.Net data to a database.

Embulk is an open source bulk data loader. When paired with the CData JDBC Driver for Authorize.Net, Embulk easily loads data from Authorize.Net to any supported destination. In this article, we explain how to use the CData JDBC Driver for Authorize.Net in Embulk to load Authorize.Net data to a MySQL dtabase.

With built-in optimized data processing, the CData JDBC Driver offers unmatched performance for interacting with live Authorize.Net data. When you issue complex SQL queries to Authorize.Net, the driver pushes supported SQL operations, like filters and aggregations, directly to Authorize.Net and utilizes the embedded SQL engine to process unsupported operations client-side (often SQL functions and JOIN operations).

Configure a JDBC Connection to Authorize.Net Data

Before creating a bulk load job in Embulk, note the installation location for the JAR file for the JDBC Driver (typically C:\Program Files\CData\CData JDBC Driver for Authorize.Net\lib).

Embulk supports JDBC connectivity, so you can easily connect to Authorize.Net and execute SQL queries. Before creating a bulk load job, create a JDBC URL for authenticating with Authorize.Net.

You can obtain the necessary connection properties on the Security Settings -> General Settings page after logging into your Merchant Account.

  • UseSandbox: The Authorize.Net API to be used to process transactions. If you are using a production account, this property can be left blank. If you are using a developer test account, set this to 'TRUE'.
  • LoginID: The API login Id associated with your payment gateway account. This property is used to authenticate that you are authorized to submit website transactions. Note that this value is not the same as the login Id that you use to log in to the Merchant Interface.
  • TransactionKey: The transaction key associated with your payment gateway account. This property is used to authenticate that you are authorized to submit website transactions.

Built-in Connection String Designer

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

java -jar cdata.jdbc.authorizenet.jar

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

Below is a typical JDBC connection string for Authorize.Net:

jdbc:authorizenet:LoginId=MyLoginId;TransactionKey=MyTransactionKey;

Load Authorize.Net Data in Embulk

After installing the CData JDBC Driver and creating a JDBC connection string, install the required Embulk plugins.

Install Embulk Input & Output Plugins

  1. Install the JDBC Input Plugin in Embulk.
    https://github.com/embulk/embulk-input-jdbc/tree/master/embulk-input-jdbc
    2. embulk gem install embulk-input-jdbc
  2. In this article, we use MySQL as the destination database. You can also choose SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or Google BigQuery as the destination using the output Plugins.
    https://github.com/embulk/embulk-output-jdbc/tree/master/embulk-output-mysql embulk gem install embulk-output-mysql

With the input and output plugins installed, we are ready to load Authorize.Net data into MySQL using Embulk.

Create a Job to Load Authorize.Net Data

Start by creating a config file in Embulk, using a name like authorizenet-mysql.yml.

  1. For the input plugin options, use the CData JDBC Driver for Authorize.Net, including the path to the driver JAR file, the driver class (e.g. cdata.jdbc.authorizenet.AuthorizeNetDriver), and the JDBC URL from above
  2. For the output plugin options, use the values and credentials for the MySQL database

Sample Config File (authorizenet-mysql.yml)

in: type: jdbc driver_path: C:\Program Files\CData[product_name] 20xx\lib\cdata.jdbc.authorizenet.jar driver_class: cdata.jdbc.authorizenet.AuthorizeNetDriver url: jdbc:authorizenet:LoginId=MyLoginId;TransactionKey=MyTransactionKey; table: "SettledBatchList" out: type: mysql host: localhost database: DatabaseName user: UserId password: UserPassword table: "SettledBatchList" mode: insert

After creating the file, run the Embulk job.

embulk run authorizenet-mysql.yml

After running the the Embulk job, find the Salesforce data in the MySQL table.

Load Filtered Authorize.Net Data

In addition to loading data directly from a table, you can use a custom SQL query to have more granular control of the data loaded. You can also perform increment loads by setting a last updated column in a SQL WHERE clause in the query field.

in: type: jdbc driver_path: C:\Program Files\CData[product_name] 20xx\lib\cdata.jdbc.authorizenet.jar driver_class: cdata.jdbc.authorizenet.AuthorizeNetDriver url: jdbc:authorizenet:LoginId=MyLoginId;TransactionKey=MyTransactionKey; query: "SELECT MarketType, TotalCharge FROM SettledBatchList WHERE [RecordId] = 1" out: type: mysql host: localhost database: DatabaseName user: UserId password: UserPassword table: "SettledBatchList" mode: insert
