Connect to SendPulse Data in DBArtisan
The CData ODBC Driver for SendPulse seamlessly integrates SendPulse data into database management tools like DBArtisan by enabling you to access SendPulse data as a database. This article shows how to create an data source for SendPulse in DBArtisan and execute queries. You can then edit data visually and execute standard SQL.
Integrate SendPulse 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 SendPulse Profile on disk (e.g. C:\profiles\SendPulse.apip). Next, set the ProfileSettings connection property to the connection string for SendPulse (see below).
SendPulse API Profile Settings
Log into your SendPulse account, navigate to Profile > Account Settings > API, and retrieve your API ID and Secret to use as your OAuth Client ID and Secret.
You can then follow the steps below to register SendPulse 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 SendPulse data. SendPulse entities are displayed in the Datasource Explorer.
You can now work with SendPulse data as you work with any other database. See the driver help documentation for more information on the queries supported by the SendPulse API.
