Note: Before you can configure and use SnapLogic with CData Connect, you must first connect a data source to your CData Connect account. See Connections for more information.

You must also generate a Personal Access Token (PAT) on the Settings page. Copy this down, as it acts as your password during authentication.

1. Download and install the CData Connect JDBC driver.

   1. Open the Client Tools page of CData Connect.
   2. In the Dev Tools section, click JDBC.
   3. Download and run the setup file.
   4. When the installation is complete, the JAR file can be found in the installation directory. The default directory is C:/Program Files/CData/CData Connect JDBC driver/lib.

2. Log into SnapLogic.

3. Click the Manager tab.

4. Select a folder on the left to add the JDBC JAR file to.

   

5. Click the Files tab.

   

6. Click the “+” button in the top right to upload the CData Connect JDBC JAR file. It appears as a file once uploaded.

   

7. Click the Designer tab.

8. Click JDBC to expand the options for snaps.

9. Click and drag a Generic JDBC - Select snap onto the designer.

   

10. Click Add Account > Continue.

11. Enter the JDBC connection properties.

    • JDBC driver—add the CData Connect JAR file

    • JDBC driver Class—enter cdata.jdbc.connect.ConnectDriver

    • JDBC Url—enter a JDBC connection string for the JDBC driver. The connection string is formatted like jdbc:connect:AuthScheme=[AuthScheme];User=[User];Password=[PAT];.

    • Username—enter your CData Connect username. This is displayed in the top-right corner of the CData Connect interface. For example, test@cdata.com.

    • Password—enter the PAT you generated on the Settings page.

    

12. Click Validate. If the connection succeeds, the snap is ready to use.
