Natively Connect to Claude Compliance Data in PHP

Drop the CData ODBC Driver for Claude Compliance into your LAMP or WAMP stack to build Claude Compliance-connected Web applications. This article shows how to use PHP's ODBC built-in functions to connect to Claude Compliance data, execute queries, and output the results.

Configure a DSN

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.

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.

Establish a Connection

Open the connection to Claude Compliance by calling the odbc_connect or odbc_pconnect methods. To close connections, use odbc_close or odbc_close_all.

$conn = odbc_connect("CData ODBC ClaudeCompliance Source","user","password");

Connections opened with odbc_connect are closed when the script ends. Connections opened with the odbc_pconnect method are still open after the script ends. This enables other scripts to share that connection when they connect with the same credentials. By sharing connections among your scripts, you can save system resources, and queries execute faster.

$conn = odbc_pconnect("CData ODBC ClaudeCompliance Source","user","password");
...
odbc_close($conn); //persistent connection must be closed explicitly

Create Prepared Statements

Create prepared statements and parameterized queries with the odbc_prepare function.

$query = odbc_prepare($conn, "SELECT * FROM Projects WHERE OrganizationUuid = ?");

Execute Queries

Execute prepared statements with odbc_execute.

$conn = odbc_connect("CData ODBC ClaudeCompliance Source","user","password");
$query = odbc_prepare($conn, "SELECT * FROM Projects WHERE OrganizationUuid = ?");
$success = odbc_execute($query, array('abcdef01-2345-6789-abcd-ef0123456789'));
  

Execute nonparameterized queries with odbc_exec.

$conn = odbc_connect("CData ODBC ClaudeCompliance Source","user","password");
$query = odbc_exec($conn, "SELECT Id, Name FROM Projects WHERE OrganizationUuid = 'abcdef01-2345-6789-abcd-ef0123456789'");
  

Process Results

Access a row in the result set as an array with the odbc_fetch_array function.

$conn = odbc_connect("CData ODBC Claude Compliance data Source","user","password");
$query = odbc_exec($conn, "SELECT Id, Name FROM Projects WHERE OrganizationUuid = 'abcdef01-2345-6789-abcd-ef0123456789'");
while($row = odbc_fetch_array($query)){
 echo $row["Id"] . "\n";
}

Display the result set in an HTML table with the odbc_result_all function.

$conn = odbc_connect("CData ODBC Claude Compliance data Source","user","password");
$query = odbc_prepare($conn, "SELECT * FROM Projects WHERE OrganizationUuid = ?");
$success = odbc_execute($query, array('abcdef01-2345-6789-abcd-ef0123456789'));
if($success)
  odbc_result_all($query);
