Connect to Sage Intacct Data and Transfer Data in Talend

This article shows how you can easily integrate the CData JDBC driver for Sage Intacct into your workflow in Talend. This article uses the CData JDBC Driver for Sage Intacct to transfer Sage Intacct data in a job flow in Talend.

Connect to Sage Intacct in Talend as a JDBC Data Source

You can follow the procedure below to establish a JDBC connection to Sage Intacct:

1. Add a new database connection to Sage Intacct data: To add a new connection, expand the Metadata node, right-click the Db Connections node, and then click Create Connection.
2. In the resulting wizard, enter a name for the connection.

3. On the next page, select Generic JDBC from the DB Type menu and enter the JDBC URL.

   To connect using the Login method, the following connection properties are required: User, Password, CompanyId, SenderId and SenderPassword.

   User, Password, and CompanyId are the credentials for the account you wish to connect to.

   SenderId and SenderPassword are the Web Services credentials assigned to you by Sage Intacct.

   Built-in Connection String Designer

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

   java -jar cdata.jdbc.sageintacct.jar

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

   A typical JDBC URL is below:

   jdbc:sageintacct:User=myusername;CompanyId=TestCompany;Password=mypassword;SenderId=Test;SenderPassword=abcde123;
4. Enter the path to the cdata.jdbc.sageintacct.jar file, located in the lib subfolder of the installation directory.
5. Right-click the connection and then click Retrieve Schema.
6. Click Next with the default options to select the tables you want to import.
7. Finish the wizard with the default options.

Output the Customer Table to a Flat File
