How to read data from Stripe in ZappySys Data Gateway


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

Create Data Source in ZappySys Data Gateway based on ZappySys API Driver
  1. Download and install ZappySys ODBC PowerPack.

  2. Search for gateway in start menu and Open ZappySys Data Gateway:
    Open ZappySys Data Gateway

  3. Go to Users Tab to add our first Gateway user. Click Add; we will give it a name tdsuser and enter password you like to give. Check Admin option and click OK to save. We will use these details later when we create linked server:
    ZappySys Data Gateway - Add User

  4. Now we are ready to add a data source. Click Add, give data source a name (Copy this name somewhere, we will need it later) and then select Native - ZappySys API Driver. Finally, click OK. And it will create the Data Set for it and open the ZS driver UI.

  5. When the Configuration window appears give your data source a name if you haven't done that already, then select "Stripe" from the list of Popular Connectors. If "Stripe" is not present in the list, then click "Search Online" and download it. Then set the path to the location where you downloaded it. Finally, click Continue >> to proceed with configuring the DSN:
