Using the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator

You can use the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to edit the DSN configuration. Note that the DSN is created during the installation process.

Complete the following steps to edit the DSN configuration:

1. Select Start > Search, and enter ODBC Data Sources in the Search box.
2. Choose the version of the ODBC Administrator that corresponds to the bitness of your application (32-bit or 64-bit).
3. Click the System DSN tab.
4. Select the system data source and click Configure.
5. Edit the information on the Connection tab and click OK.

Note: For .NET Framework 4.0, the driver distributes Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable. For .NET Framework 3.5, the driver distributes Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable.

Ensuring Registry Access

The driver stores connection information in the Windows registry. To ensure that the driver can write to the registry, perform either of the following actions:

1. Run the calling application as an administrator.
2. Connect via a User DSN instead of a System DSN.

Connecting to Marketo

The following connection options are required when connecting to Marketo.

• URL: The URL of the REST API Service. You can locate this in Admin -> Integration -> Web Services -> REST API. Example values: https://123-abc-456.mktorest.com/ or https://123-abc-456.mktorest.com/rest.
• OAuthClientId: The OAuth Client ID associated with your custom service.
• OAuthClientSecret: The OAuth Client Secret associated with your custom service.

For additional connection options, see Connection String Options.

Obtaining OAuth Credentials

Before obtaining OAuth credentials you need to create a custom service if you do not already have one. To do so follow the instructions provided in Creating a Custom Service.

To obtain OAuth credentials for a custom service:

1. Go to the Admin tab.
2. Click on the LaunchPoint option.
3. Select the service and click on View Details.
4. Marketo displays a window that shows the authentication credentials. Use "Client Id" as the value for OAuthClientId and "Client Secret" for OAuthClientSecret.
