ADO.NET Provider for IBM Cloud Object Storage

Build 24.0.9060

Establishing a Connection

Connecting to IBM Cloud Object Storage

To connect to IBM Cloud Object Storage data, set these parameters:

  • InitiateOAuth: GETANDREFRESH. You can use InitiateOAuth to avoid repeating the OAuth exchange and manually setting the OAuthAccessToken.
  • ApiKey: The API key which was noted during setup (see Before You Connect).
  • CloudObjectStorageCRN (Optional): The cloud object storage CRN established during setup (see Before You Connect). The provider attempts to retrieve this automatically, but if you have more than one Cloud Object Storage account, we recommend that you specify this explicitly.

When you connect, the provider completes the OAuth process.

  1. Extracts the access token and authenticates requests.
  2. Saves OAuth values in OAuthSettingsLocation to be persisted across connections.
