The CData Tableau Connector for Square models the Square v1 and Square v2 APIs as relational tables, views, and stored procedures. These are defined in schema files, which are simple, text-based configuration files.

The available entities are documented in Square v1 Data Model and Square v2 Data Model.

Using Query Processing

The connector offloads as much of the SELECT statement processing as possible to the Square APIs and then processes the rest of the query within the connector. The following sections document API limitations, requirements, or particularities.

Querying Several Business Locations

You can query tables/views from different business locations by specifying multiple LocationIds in the "IN" operator. Note however that for tables/views like Customers, Employees, Orders, and OrderItems, this is not possible.

SELECT * FROM Transactions WHERE LocationId IN ('CBASEDbVhLxAJeGrBRLi-BxZ3XcgAQ','CBASEGJDarn_hucmacLdA_iGNGwgAQ','CBASEFsuPlSmrLHXu9a5Lmlv4D4gAQ')
