Get the Report →DataBind Outreach.io Data to the DevExpress Data Grid
Use the CData ADO.NET Provider for Outreach.io with the DevExpress Windows Forms and Web controls to provide Outreach.io data to a chart.
The ADO.NET Provider for Outreach.io by CData incorporates conventional ADO.NET data access components compatible with third-party controls. You can adhere to the standard ADO.NET data binding procedures to establish two-way access to real-time data through UI controls. This article will demonstrate the utilization of CData components for data binding with DevExpress UI Controls (Windows Forms and Web controls), specifically binding to a chart that visualizes live data.
You must use OAuth to authenticate with Outreach. Set the InitiateOAuth connection property to "GETANDREFRESH". For more information, refer to the OAuth section in the Help documentation.
Windows Forms Controls
The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress chart with Outreach.io data. The OutreachDataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart control. The Diagram property of the control defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.
using (OutreachConnection connection = new OutreachConnection(
"InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH")) {
OutreachDataAdapter dataAdapter = new OutreachDataAdapter(
"SELECT Name, NumberOfEmployees FROM Accounts WHERE Industry = 'Textiles'", connection);
DataTable table = new DataTable();
dataAdapter.Fill(table);
DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series();
chartControl1.Series.Add(series);
series.DataSource = table;
series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "NumberOfEmployees" });
series.ArgumentScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Qualitative;
series.ArgumentDataMember = "Name";
series.ValueScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Numerical;
chartControl1.Legend.Visibility = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.False;
((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true;
}
Web Controls
The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress Web control with Outreach.io data. The OutreachDataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart; the Diagram property defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.
using DevExpress.XtraCharts;
using (OutreachConnection connection = new OutreachConnection(
"InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH"))
{
OutreachDataAdapter OutreachDataAdapter1 = new OutreachDataAdapter("SELECT Name, NumberOfEmployees FROM Accounts WHERE Industry = 'Textiles'", connection);
DataTable table = new DataTable();
OutreachDataAdapter1.Fill(table);
DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new Series("Series1", ViewType.Bar);
WebChartControl1.Series.Add(series);
series.DataSource = table;
series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "NumberOfEmployees" });
series.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Qualitative;
series.ArgumentDataMember = "Name";
series.ValueScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical;
((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true;
}
