Step-by-step instructions

In upper section we learned how to read data, now in this section we will learn how to configure Stripe in the API Source to POST data to the Stripe.

  1. Begin with opening Visual Studio and Create a New Project.

  2. Select Integration Service Project and in new project window set the appropriate name and location for project. And click OK.

    In the new SSIS project screen you will find the following:

    • SSIS ToolBox on left side bar
    • Solution Explorer and Property Window on right bar
    • Control flow, data flow, event Handlers, Package Explorer in tab windows
    • Connection Manager Window in the bottom
    SSIS Project Screen
    Note: If you don't see ZappySys SSIS PowerPack Task or Components in SSIS Toolbox, please refer to this help link.
  3. Now, Drag and Drop SSIS Data Flow Task from SSIS Toolbox. Double click on the Data Flow Task to see Data Flow designer.

  4. Read the data from the source, using any desired source component. You can even make an API call using the ZappySys JSON/XML/API Source and read data from there. In this example, we will use an OLE DB Source component to read real-time data from a SQL Server database.

  5. From the SSIS Toolbox drag and drop API Destination (Predefined Templates) on the Data Flow Designer surface and connect source component with it, and double click to edit it.

  6. Select New Connection to create a new connection:

    API Destination - Stripe

  7. To configure the Stripe connector, choose one of the following methods:

    • Choose from Popular Connector List: Select a pre-installed service directly from the dropdown menu.
    • Search Online: Use this to find and download a new connector file to your computer.
    • Use Saved/Downloaded File: Once the file is downloaded, browse your local drive to load it into the configuration.

    After that, just click Continue >>:

  8. 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.
