Salesforce Connector for Python How to Get Beta Report

Introduction

In this article we will delve deeper into Salesforce and Python 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

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
Then simply select the Get Beta Report endpoint (action).
Continue by configuring the Required parameters. You can also set optional parameters too.
Move on by hitting Preview Data button to preview the results.

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

Get Beta Report

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

That's it! You can use this query in Python.

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 Python 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 Python

Use this code snippet to read the data using SalesforceDSN data source:

SalesforceDSN')
When you run the code it will make the API call and read the data:

Here is Python program's code in text format:


    import pyodbc
    conn = pyodbc.connect('DSN=SalesforceDSN')

    cursor = conn.cursor()

    #execute query to fetch data from API service
    cursor.execute("SELECT id,title FROM products")

    row = cursor.fetchone()
    while row:
        print(row)
        row = cursor.fetchone()

    ##For loop example
    #for row in cursor:
    #    print(row)
