Connect to SAP Hybris C4C as an ODBC data source in PyCharm using the CData ODBC Driver for SAP Hybris C4C.
The CData ODBC Drivers can be used in any environment that supports loading an ODBC Driver. In this tutorial we will explore using the CData ODBC Driver for SAP Hybris C4C from within PyCharm. Included are steps for adding the CData ODBC Driver as a data source, as well as basic PyCharm code to query the data source and display results.
To begin, this tutorial will assume that you have already installed the CData ODBC Driver for SAP Hybris C4C as well as PyCharm.
Add Pyodbc to the Project
Follow the steps below to add the pyodbc module to your project.
- Click File -> Settings to open the project settings window.
- Click Project Interpreter from the Project: YourProjectName menu.

Connect to SAP Hybris C4C
You can now connect with an ODBC connection string or a DSN. See the Getting Started section in the CData driver documentation for a guide to creating a DSN on your OS.
SAP Hybris Cloud for Customer uses basic authentication. Set the User and Password to your login credentials.
Below is the syntax for a DSN:
[CData SAPHybrisC4C Source]
Driver = CData ODBC Driver for SAP Hybris C4C
Description = My Description
User = user
Password = password
Execute SQL to SAP Hybris C4C
Instantiate a Cursor and use the execute method of the Cursor class to execute any SQL statement.
import pyodbc
cnxn = pyodbc.connect('DRIVER={CData ODBC Driver for SAPHybrisC4C};User = user;Password = password;')
cursor = cnxn.cursor()
cursor.execute("SELECT ObjectID, AccountName FROM AccountCollection WHERE AccountName = 'MyAccount'")
rows = cursor.fetchall()
for row in rows:
print(row.ObjectID, row.AccountName)
