Use wizards in DBArtisan to configure Aweber data as a data source.

The CData ODBC Driver for Aweber seamlessly integrates Aweber data into database management tools like DBArtisan by enabling you to access Aweber data as a database. This article shows how to create an data source for Aweber in DBArtisan and execute queries. You can then edit data visually and execute standard SQL.

Integrate Aweber Data into DBArtisan Projects

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.

Start by setting the Profile connection property to the location of the Aweber Profile on disk (e.g. C:\profiles\Aweber.apip). Next, set the ProfileSettings connection property to the connection string for Aweber (see below).

Aweber API Profile Settings

Register a free developer account with AWeber and create an app to receive your client ID and secret.

You can then follow the steps below to register Aweber data as a database instance in your project:

  1. In DBArtisan, click Data Source -> Register Datasource.
  2. Select Generic ODBC.
  3. Enter a name for the data source and select the DSN.
  4. Finish the wizard to connect to Aweber data. Aweber entities are displayed in the Datasource Explorer.

You can now work with Aweber data as you work with any other database. See the driver help documentation for more information on the queries supported by the Aweber API.
