No description available [API reference]

Instructions

Apache Drill JDBC from Power BI, SQL Server Linked Server via ZappySys Data Gateway, Crystal Reports, SSRS, Azure Data Factory, and other ODBC tools.

  1. Note the Drillbit host and JDBC port (default 31010).
  2. Create a Drill user if authentication is enabled, or leave user/password empty for anonymous clusters.
  3. Replace hostname in the JDBC URL. Enable SSL only if your cluster requires it (see the Drill JDBC docs).
  4. Finish the wizard. Then click Test Connection on the DSN Main UI (the wizard does not run Test Connection).
  5. Done. You can query from C#, Python, PowerShell, and ODBC apps.
