Query Claude Compliance Data through ODBC in Node.js

Node.js is a JavaScript runtime environment that allows you to run JavaScript code outside of a browser. With the CData ODBC Driver for Claude Compliance, you can access live Claude Compliance data from Node.js apps and scripts. In this article, we walk through installing node-odbc and the required tools to create a simple Node.js app with access to live Claude Compliance data.

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

Connecting to Claude Compliance Data

If you have not already done so, provide values for the required connection properties in the data source name (DSN). You can use the built-in Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to configure the DSN. This is also the last step of the driver installation. See the "Getting Started" chapter in the help documentation for a guide to using the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to create and configure a DSN.

The driver connects to Claude Compliance using a Compliance Access Key, the only supported authentication method. Set the following connection property:

• APIKey: The Compliance Access Key you created.

Creating a Compliance Access Key

1. Enable the Compliance API for your organization.
2. Sign in to claude.ai as a primary owner or organization owner and open Organization settings > API > Keys.
3. Select Create Key and assign only the scopes your integration needs:
   • read:compliance_activities for Activities and the typed activity views.
   • read:compliance_org_data for organizations, roles, groups, and settings.
   • read:compliance_user_data for users, chats, files, projects, and downloads.
   • delete:compliance_user_data for the explicit Delete stored procedures.
4. Create the key and copy it when it appears. The key starts with sk-ant-api01- and is shown only once.

Optionally, set OrganizationUUID to limit organization-scoped views (such as OrganizationUsers and ComplianceRoles) to a single linked organization. If it is left empty, those views default to the first available organization and do not include data from all linked organizations.

Building node-odbc

In order to connect to Claude Compliance through the CData ODBC Driver, you need to build node-odbc manually (after installing the required tools).

Installing the Required Tools

The following commands install the tools required to build node-odbc (note the -g parameter, which installs the tools globally).

npm i -g windows-build-tools
npm i -g node-gyp

Building node-odbc

After installing the required tools, create a directory for the Node.js app and install odbc (which builds the binary for us to use in our Node.js script).

mkdir nodeodbc
cd nodeodbc
npm i -g node

Querying Claude Compliance from Node.js

With the ODBC Driver installed, a DSN Configured, and node-odbc built, we are ready to query live Claude Compliance data from a Node.js app. The sample code below connects to a specific DSN and queries the Projects table.

myscript.js

const odbc = require('odbc');

async function queryClaudeCompliance() {
    const connection = await odbc.connect(`DSN=CData ClaudeCompliance Source`);
    const data = await connection.query('SELECT Id, Name FROM Projects');
    console.log(data);
}

queryClaudeCompliance();

Once you write the app, use node to execute the script:

node myscript.js
