Connect to PagerDuty Data in DBArtisan
The CData ODBC Driver for PagerDuty seamlessly integrates PagerDuty data into database management tools like DBArtisan by enabling you to access PagerDuty data as a database. This article shows how to create an data source for PagerDuty in DBArtisan and execute queries. You can then edit data visually and execute standard SQL.
Integrate PagerDuty Data into DBArtisan Projects
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.
Start by setting the Profile connection property to the location of the PagerDuty Profile on disk (e.g. C:\profiles\PagerDuty.apip). Next, set the ProfileSettings connection property to the connection string for PagerDuty (see below).
PagerDuty API Profile Settings
Register an OAuth application via PagerDuty's Developer Mode to obtain a Client ID and Client Secret. The callback URL must match the redirect URI configured in your app settings.
You can then follow the steps below to register PagerDuty data as a database instance in your project:
- In DBArtisan, click Data Source -> Register Datasource.
- Select Generic ODBC.
- Enter a name for the data source and select the DSN.
- Finish the wizard to connect to PagerDuty data. PagerDuty entities are displayed in the Datasource Explorer.
You can now work with PagerDuty data as you work with any other database. See the driver help documentation for more information on the queries supported by the PagerDuty API.
