Integrate connectivity to OneNote data with wizards in IntelliJ.
The CData JDBC Driver for OneNote enables you to access OneNote as a JDBC data source, providing integration with rapid development tools in IDEs. This article shows how to use the data source configuration wizard to connect to OneNote data in IntelliJ.
Create a JBDC Data Source for OneNote
Follow the steps below to add the driver JAR and define connection properties required to connect to OneNote data.
- In the Data Sources window, right-click and then click Add Data Source -> DB Data Source.
In the Data Source Properties dialog that appears, the following properties are required:
- JDBC Driver Files: Click the button next to this menu to add the JDBC Driver file cdata.jdbc.onenote.jar, located in the installation directory.
- JDBC Driver Class: In this menu, select cdata.jdbc.onenote.OneNoteDriver from the list.
Database URL: Enter the connection URL in the JDBC URL property. The URL must start with jdbc:onenote: and includes connection properties separated with semicolons.
OneNote uses the OAuth authentication standard. To authenticate using OAuth, you will need to create an app to obtain the OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and CallbackURL connection properties. See the Help documentation for more information.
Built-in Connection String Designer
For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the OneNote JDBC Driver. Either double-click the JAR file or execute the jar file from the command-line.
java -jar cdata.jdbc.onenote.jar
Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.
A typical JDBC URL is the following:
jdbc:onenote:OAuthClientId=MyApplicationId; OAuthClientSecret=MySecretKey; CallbackURL=http://localhost:33333;InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH
Edit and Save OneNote Data
To discover schema information, right-click the data source you just created and click Refresh Tables. To query a table, right-click it and then click Open Tables Editor. You can also modify records in the Table Editor.
