Connect to Google Campaign Manager 360 Data in DBeaver



Use the CData ODBC Driver to connect to Google Campaign Manager 360 data in DBeaver.

NOTE: The Legacy ODBC driver was removed in DBeaver Community Edition 23.1. As an alternative, you can use a CData JDBC Driver (learn how here: How to Connect DBeaver to Google Campaign Manager 360 via JDBC). If you need to use ODBC Drivers, refer to the DBeaver Documentation.


The CData ODBC Driver for Google Campaign Manager 360 enables access to live data from Google Campaign Manager 360 under the ODBC standard, allowing you work with Google Campaign Manager 360 data in a wide variety of BI, reporting, and ETL tools and directly, using familiar SQL queries. This article shows how to manage Google Campaign Manager 360 data with visual tools in DBeaver like the query browser.

The CData ODBC drivers offer unmatched performance for interacting with live Google Campaign Manager 360 data in DBeaver due to optimized data processing built into the driver. When you issue complex SQL queries from DBeaver to Google Campaign Manager 360, the driver pushes supported SQL operations, like filters and aggregations, directly to Google Campaign Manager 360 and utilizes the embedded SQL engine to process unsupported operations (often SQL functions and JOIN operations) client-side. With built-in dynamic metadata querying, you can manage and analyze Google Campaign Manager 360 data.

Connect to Google Campaign Manager 360

If you have not already done so, provide values for the required connection properties in the data source name (DSN). You can configure the DSN using the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator. This is also the last step of the driver installation. See the "Getting Started" chapter in the Help documentation for a guide to using the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to create and configure a DSN.

Google Campaign Manager uses the OAuth authentication standard. The data provider facilitates OAuth in various ways as described below. The following OAuth flow requires the authenticating user to interact with DoubleClick Campaign Manager, using the browser. You can also use a service account to authenticate.

For authentication guides, see the Getting Started section of the data provider help documentation.

Finally, set the "Map To WVarchar connection property to False in the DSN Configuration window for the driver. This configuration will allow string types to be mapped to SQL_VARCHAR and prevent SQL_WVARCHAR types from being displayed as NULL.

Connecting to the Google Campaign Manager 360 ODBC Data Source in DBeaver

  1. Open the DBeaver application and in the Database menu, select the New Database Connection option.
  2. In the 'Connect to a database' window, select ODBC and click Next.
  3. In the Database/Schema field, enter the DSN name (CData Google Campaign Manager 360 Source by default). It will be automatically added to the JDBC URL as well.
  4. Click the Test Connection button. You should receive a 'Connected' message after DBeaver has detected the DSN, along with details about the driver if the connection is successful.

Query Google Campaign Manager 360 Data

You can now query information from the tables exposed by the data source connection. You can expand the database structure in order to view all the tables. You can retrieve the table's data by right-clicking on a table name and selecting View data. The data will then be available in the Data tab.
