Manage Microsoft Exchange Data in DBArtisan as a JDBC Source



Use wizards in DBArtisan to create a JDBC data source for Microsoft Exchange.

The CData JDBC Driver for Microsoft Exchange seamlessly integrates Microsoft Exchange data into database management tools like DBArtisan by enabling you to access Microsoft Exchange data as a database. This article shows how to create a JDBC source for Microsoft Exchange in DBArtisan. You can then edit data visually and execute standard SQL.

Integrate Microsoft Exchange Data into DBArtisan Projects

Follow the steps below to register Microsoft Exchange data as a database instance in your project:

  1. In DBArtisan, click Data Source -> Register Datasource.
  2. Select Generic JDBC.
  3. Click Manage.
  4. In the resulting dialog, click New. Enter a name for the driver and click Add. In the resulting dialog, navigate to the driver JAR. The driver JAR is located in the lib subfolder of the installation directory.
  5. In the Connection URL box, enter credentials and other required connection properties in the JDBC URL.

    Specify the User and Password to connect to Exchange. Additionally, specify the address of the Exchange server you are connecting to and the Platform associated with the server.

    Built-in Connection String Designer

    For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the Microsoft Exchange JDBC Driver. Either double-click the JAR file or execute the jar file from the command-line.

    java -jar cdata.jdbc.exchange.jar

    Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.

    Below is a typical connection string:

    jdbc:exchange:User='[email protected]';Password='myPassword';Server='https://outlook.office365.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx';Platform='Exchange_Online';
  6. Finish the wizard to connect to Microsoft Exchange data. Microsoft Exchange entities are displayed in the Datasource Explorer.

You can now work with Microsoft Exchange data as you work with any other database. See the driver help documentation for more information on the queries supported by the Microsoft Exchange API.
