Salesforce Connector for MS Access How to Get Beta Report

Introduction

In this article we will delve deeper into Salesforce and MS Access integration, and will learn how to get beta report. We are continuing from where we left off. By this time, you must have installed ODBC PowerPack, created ODBC Data Source, and configured authentication settings in your Salesforce account .

So, let's not waste time and begin.

Use Query Builder to generate SQL query

  1. The first thing you have to do is open Query Builder:

    ZappySys API Driver - Salesforce
    Amazon Ads Connector can be used to get Amazon advertisements using Amazon Advertisements API, download various advertisement-related reports.
    SalesforceDSN
    Open Query Builder in API ODBC Driver to read and write data to REST API
  2. Then simply select the Get Beta Report endpoint (action).

  3. Continue by configuring the Required parameters. You can also set optional parameters too.

  4. Move on by hitting Preview Data button to preview the results.

  5. If you see the results you need, simply copy the generated query:

    Get Beta Report
    Optional Parameters
    Report Name Test Name
    Report Type spCampaigns
    Time Unit SUMMARY
    Group By campaign
    Group By targeting
    Group By searchTerm
    Group By advertiser
    Group By asin
    Report Start Date (yyyy-MM-dd) Maximum date range: 31 days
    Report End Date (yyyy-MM-dd) Maximum date range: 31 days

    SELECT * FROM get_beta_report
    WITH
    (
        "ReportName" = 'Test Name',
        "ReportType" = 'spCampaigns',
        "StartDatePurchasedProductReportTypeGroupByAsin" = 'today-30d',
        "EndDatePurchasedProductReportTypeGroupByAsin" = 'today',
        "StartDatePurchasedProductReportTypeGroupByPurchasedAsin" = 'today-365d',
        "EndDatePurchasedProductReportTypeGroupByPurchasedAsin" = 'today'
    )
    Query Builder
  6. That's it! You can use this query in MS Access.

Let's not stop here and explore SQL query examples, including how to use them in Stored Procedures and Views (virtual tables) in the next steps.

SQL query examples

Use these SQL queries in your MS Access data source:

How to Get beta report

SELECT * FROM get_beta_report
WITH
(
    "ReportName" = 'Test Name',
    "ReportType" = 'spCampaigns',
    "StartDatePurchasedProductReportTypeGroupByAsin" = 'today-30d',
    "EndDatePurchasedProductReportTypeGroupByAsin" = 'today',
    "StartDatePurchasedProductReportTypeGroupByPurchasedAsin" = 'today-365d',
    "EndDatePurchasedProductReportTypeGroupByPurchasedAsin" = 'today'
)

Get Beta Report in MS Access

  1. First of all, open MS Access and create a new MS Access database.

  2. In the next step, start loading ODBC data source we created:

    Load ODBC data source
  3. Then click next until data source selection window appears. Select the data source we created in one of the previous steps and hit OK:

    SalesforceDSN
    DSN selection
  4. Continue with tables and views selection. You can extract multiple tables or views:

    DSN Table Selection
  5. Finally, wait while data is being loaded and once done you should see a similar view:

    In Access DSN Data Loaded
