How to read data from OneDrive in SSIS (Export data)

In this section we will learn how to configure and use OneDrive Connector in the API Source to extract data from the OneDrive.

Begin with opening Visual Studio and Create a New Project.
Select Integration Service Project and in new project window set the appropriate name and location for project. And click OK.
In the the new SSIS project screen you will find the following:
1. SSIS ToolBox on left side bar
2. Solution Explorer and Property Window on right bar
3. Control flow, data flow, event Handlers, Package Explorer in tab windows
4. Connection Manager Window in the bottom
Note: If you don't see ZappySys SSIS PowerPack Task or Components in SSIS Toolbox, please refer to this help link.
Now, Drag and Drop SSIS Data Flow Task from SSIS Toolbox. Double click on the Data Flow Task to see Data Flow designer.
From the SSIS toolbox drag and API Source (Predefined Templates) on the data flow designer surface, and double click on it to edit it:
Select New Connection to create a new connection:
Use a preinstalled OneDrive Connector from Popular Connector List or press Search Online radio button to download OneDrive Connector. Once downloaded simply use it in the configuration:

OneDrive

Proceed with selecting the desired Authentication Type. Then select API Base URL (in most cases default one is the right one). Finally, fill in all the required parameters and set optional parameters if needed. You may press a link Steps to Configure which will help set certain parameters. More info is available in Authentication section.

User Credentials [OAuth]

OAuth App must be created in Microsoft Azure AD. These settings typically found here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/auth-register-app-v2. [API Help..]

Steps to get OneDrive Credentials

Firstly, login into Azure Portal and there create an OAuth application:

Go to Azure Portal and login there.
Then go to Azure Active Directory.
On the left side click menu item App registrations
Then proceed with clicking New registration.
Enter a name for your application.
Select one of Accounts in this organizational directory only as supported account type to access data in your company.
In Redirect URI section leave option selected at Web.
In nearby textbox enter https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/nativeclient as Redirect URI or any other valid redirect URL, e.g. https://zappysys.com/oauth
Use this Redirect URI in Redirect URL grid row.
Copy Application (client) ID and paste it into API Connection Manager configuration grid in Client ID row.
Then click on Endpoints link and copy first URL to Authorization URL and second one to Token URL in configuration grid. Usually they look similar to these:
- https://login.microsoftonline.com/daed1250-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-ef0a982d3d1e/oauth2/v2.0/authorize
- https://login.microsoftonline.com/daed1250-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-ef0a982d3d1e/oauth2/v2.0/token
- https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize
- https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token
Close "Endpoints" and create a Client Secret by clicking Certificates & secrets.
Proceed by clicking New client secret and setting expiration period. Copy the client secret and paste it into configuration grid in Client Secret row.
Use these scopes in Scopes field: offline_access Files.Read Files.Read.All Files.ReadWrite Files.ReadWrite.All openid profile User.Read email
Click Generate Token to generate tokens.
NOTE: If you are planning to use your current data connection/token for automated processes, we recommend that you use a generic account for token generation when the login box appears (e.g. sales_automation@mycompany.com instead of bob_smith@mycompany.com). When you use a personal account which is tied to a specific employee profile and that employee leaves the company, the token may become invalid and any automated processes using that token will fail. Another potentially unwanted effect of using a personal token is incorrect logging; the API calls (e.g. Read, Edit, Delete, Upload) made with that token will record the specific user as performing the calls instead of an automated process.
That's it!
