#Database workbench query update
With access to live QuickBooks data from MySQL Workbench, you can easily query and update QuickBooks, just like you would a MySQL database. Write a SQL query to retrieve QuickBooks data, like SELECT * FROM `CData QuickBooks Sys`.Customers.From within this information dialog, you can also upload a file to be stored in that BLOB column. Open the connection you just created (CData SQL Gateway for QuickBooks). SQL Workbench/J will then retrieve the BLOB data from the server, store it in a temporary file on your hard disk, and run the selected application, passing the temporary file as a parameter.Click Test Connection to ensure the connection is configured properly and click OK.Click Store in Vault to set and store the password.Set the Hostname, Port, and Username parameters to connect to the SQL Gateway.Name the connection (CData SQL Gateway for QuickBooks).In MySQL Workbench, click to add a new MySQL connection.The steps below outline connecting to the virtual QuickBooks database created in the SQL Gateway from MySQL Workbench and issuing basic queries to work with live QuickBooks data.Ĭonnect to QuickBooks through the SQL Gateway The service can be configured in the SQL Gateway UI. You will configure a MySQL remoting service that listens for MySQL requests from clients. In this tutorial, we shall learn to select a database in MySQL, from multiple databases. See the SQL Gateway Overview to set up connectivity to QuickBooks data as a virtual MySQL database. Mysql Workbench Query Multiple Databases To create a table in the MySQL Workbench GUI: So, when a client connects to or opens a mysql command prompt, a database (from existing multiple databases) should be selected to run the SQL queries or operations. See the "Getting Started" chapter of the help documentation for a guide. The first time you connect, you will need to authorize the Remote Connector with QuickBooks.
The server supports SSL/TLS, enabling users to connect securely from remote machines. The Remote Connector runs on the same machine as QuickBooks and accepts connections through a lightweight, embedded Web server. Requests are made to QuickBooks through the Remote Connector. When you are connecting to a local QuickBooks instance, you do not need to set any connection properties. 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. This is also the last step of the driver installation. You can use the built-in Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to configure the DSN. If you have not already done so, provide values for the required connection properties in the data source name (DSN). Follow the procedure below to start the MySQL remoting service of the SQL Gateway and work with live QuickBooks data in MySQL Workbench. You can use the SQL Gateway from the ODBC Driver for QuickBooks to query QuickBooks data through a MySQL interface.
