This page outlines the steps to connect Airbyte to the CData Connect Cloud Virtual SQL Server API.

Prerequisites

Before you connect, you must first do the following:

  • Connect a data source to your CData Connect Cloud account. See Connections for more information.
  • Generate a Personal Access Token (PAT) on the Settings page. Copy this down, as it acts as your password during authentication.

  1. Log in to your Airbyte account.

  2. On the left panel, click Sources, then Add New Source.
