Connect to Greenhouse Data in DBArtisan

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

Integrate Greenhouse Data into DBArtisan Projects

If you have not already, first specify connection properties in an ODBC DSN (data source name). This is the last step of the driver installation. You can use the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to create and configure ODBC DSNs.

You need an API key to connect to Greenhouse. To create an API key, follow the steps below:

1. Click the Configure icon in the navigation bar and locate Dev Center on the left.
2. Select API Credential Management.
3. Click Create New API Key.
• Set "API Type" to Harvest.
• Set "Partner" to custom.
• Optionally, provide a description.
4. Proceed to Manage permissions and select the appropriate permissions based on the resources you want to access through the driver.
5. Copy the created key and set APIKey to that value.

You can then follow the steps below to register Greenhouse data as a database instance in your project:

1. In DBArtisan, click Data Source -> Register Datasource.
2. Select Generic ODBC.
3. Enter a name for the data source and select the DSN.
4. Finish the wizard to connect to Greenhouse data. Greenhouse entities are displayed in the Datasource Explorer.

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