Create a Data Source for Pipedrive in DataGrip and use SQL to query live Pipedrive data.
DataGrip is a database IDE that allows SQL developers to query, create, and manage databases. When paired with the CData JDBC Driver for Pipedrive, DataGrip can work with live Pipedrive data. This article shows how to establish a connection to Pipedrive data in DataGrip and use the table editor to load Pipedrive data.
Create a New Driver Definition for Pipedrive
The steps below describe how to create a new Data Source in DataGrip for Pipedrive.
- In DataGrip, click File -> New > Project and name the project
- In the Database Explorer, click the plus icon () and select Driver.
- In the Driver tab:
- Set Name to a user-friendly name (e.g. "CData Pipedrive Driver")
- Set Driver Files to the appropriate JAR file. To add the file, click the plus (), select "Add Files," navigate to the "lib" folder in the driver's installation directory and select the JAR file (e.g. cdata.jdbc.pipedrive.jar).
- Set Class to cdata.jdbc.pipedrive.Pipedrive.jar
Additionally, in the advanced tab you can change driver properties and some other settings like VM Options, VM environment, VM home path, DBMS, etc - For most cases, change the DBMS type to "Unknown" in Expert options to avoid native SQL Server queries (Transact-SQL), which might result in an invalid function error
- Click "Apply" then "OK" to save the Connection
Configure a Connection to Pipedrive
- Once the connection is saved, click the plus (), then "Data Source" then "CData Pipedrive Driver" to create a new Pipedrive Data Source.
- In the new window, configure the connection to Pipedrive with a JDBC URL.
Built-in Connection String Designer
For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the Pipedrive JDBC Driver. Either double-click the JAR file or execute the jar file from the command-line.
java -jar cdata.jdbc.pipedrive.jar
Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.
- Set URL to the connection string, e.g.,
jdbc:pipedrive:AuthScheme=Basic;CompanyDomain=MyCompanyDomain;APIToken=MyAPIToken;
- Click "Apply" and "OK" to save the connection string
At this point, you will see the data source in the Data Explorer.
Execute SQL Queries Against Pipedrive
To browse through the Pipedrive entities (available as tables) accessible through the JDBC Driver, expand the Data Source.

To execute queries, right click on any table and select "New" -> "Query Console."

In the Console, write the SQL query you wish to execute. For example: SELECT PersonName, UserEmail FROM Deals WHERE Value > 50000
