java -jar cdata.jdbc.sapbusinessone.jar
Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.
A typical JDBC URL is below:
jdbc:sapbusinessone:Url=http://localhost:50000/b1s/v1;User=username;Password=password;CompanyDB=dbname;InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH
- Enter the path to the cdata.jdbc.sapbusinessone.jar file, located in the lib subfolder of the installation directory.
