Connect to Oracle Eloqua Data in Airbyte ELT Pipelines



Use CData Connect Cloud to build ELT pipelines for Oracle Eloqua data in Airbyte.

Airbyte empowers users to load your data into any data warehouse, data lake, or database. When combined with CData Connect Cloud, Airbyte users can create Extract, Load, Transform (ELT) pipelines directly from live Oracle Eloqua data. This article illustrates the process of connecting to Oracle Eloqua through Connect Cloud and constructing ELT pipelines for Oracle Eloqua data within Airbyte.

CData Connect Cloud offers a dedicated SQL Server interface for Oracle Eloqua, facilitating data querying without the need for data replication to a native database. With built-in optimized data processing capabilities, CData Connect Cloud efficiently directs all supported SQL operations, including filters and JOINs, straight to Oracle Eloqua. This harnesses server-side processing to swiftly retrieve the desired Oracle Eloqua data.

Configure Oracle Eloqua Connectivity for Airbyte

Connectivity to Oracle Eloqua from Airbyte is made possible through CData Connect Cloud. To work with Oracle Eloqua data from Airbyte, we start by creating and configuring a Oracle Eloqua connection.

  1. Log into Connect Cloud, click Connections and click Add Connection
  2. Select "Oracle Eloqua" from the Add Connection panel
  3. Enter the necessary authentication properties to connect to Oracle Eloqua.

    There are two authentication methods available for connecting to Oracle Eloqua: Login and OAuth. The Login method requires you to have the Company, User, and Password of the user.

    If you do not have access to the username and password or do not wish to require them, you can use OAuth authentication. OAuth is better suited for allowing other users to access their own data. Using login credentials is better suited for accessing your own data.

  4. Click Create & Test
  5. Navigate to the Permissions tab in the Add Oracle Eloqua Connection page and update the User-based permissions.

Add a Personal Access Token

If you are connecting from a service, application, platform, or framework that does not support OAuth authentication, you can create a Personal Access Token (PAT) to use for authentication. Best practices would dictate that you create a separate PAT for each service, to maintain granularity of access.

  1. Click on your username at the top right of the Connect Cloud app and click User Profile.
  2. On the User Profile page, scroll down to the Personal Access Tokens section and click Create PAT.
  3. Give your PAT a name and click Create.
  4. The personal access token is only visible at creation, so be sure to copy it and store it securely for future use.
