How to Query Klaviyo Data in MySQL Workbench

You can use the SQL Gateway from the ODBC Driver for Klaviyo to query Klaviyo data through a MySQL interface. Follow the procedure below to start the MySQL remoting service of the SQL Gateway and work with live Klaviyo data in MySQL Workbench.

Connect to Klaviyo 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.

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

Klaviyo API Profile Settings

To authenticate to Klaviyo, you will needto provide an API Key. You can generate or view your API keys under 'My Account' > 'Setting' > 'API Key' > 'Create API Key'. Set the API Key to your Klaviyo Key in the ProfileSettings connection property.

Configure the SQL Gateway

See the SQL Gateway Overview to set up connectivity to Klaviyo data as a virtual MySQL database. You will configure a MySQL remoting service that listens for MySQL requests from clients. The service can be configured in the SQL Gateway UI.

Query Klaviyo from MySQL Workbench

The steps below outline connecting to the virtual Klaviyo database created in the SQL Gateway from MySQL Workbench and issuing basic queries to work with live Klaviyo data.

Connect to Klaviyo through the SQL Gateway

1. In MySQL Workbench, click to add a new MySQL connection.
2. Name the connection (CData SQL Gateway for Klaviyo).
3. Set the Hostname, Port, and Username parameters to connect to the SQL Gateway.
4. Click Store in Vault to set and store the password.
5. Click Test Connection to ensure the connection is configured properly and click OK.

Query Klaviyo Data

1. Open the connection you just created (CData SQL Gateway for Klaviyo).
2. Click File -> New Query Tab.
3. Write a SQL query to retrieve Klaviyo data, like SELECT * FROM `CData API Sys`.Campaigns;

With access to live Klaviyo data from MySQL Workbench, you can easily query and update Klaviyo, just like you would a MySQL database. Get started now with a free, 30-day trial of the CData API Driver for ODBC and the CData SQL Gateway.
