Establishing a Connection
Enabling SSIS in Visual Studio 2022
If you're using Visual Studio 2022, you will need to install the SQL Server Integration Services Projects extension to use SSIS.
- Navigate to Extensions > Manage Extensions.
- In the Manage Extensions window's search box, search for "SQL Server Integration Services Projects 2022" and select the extension in the list.
- Click Download.
- Close Visual Studio and run the downloaded Microsoft.DataTools.IntegrationServices.exe installer. Proceed through the installer with default settings.
- Open Visual Studio. There should now be an "Integration Services Project" project template available.
Adding the ADP Connection Manager
Create a new connection manager as follows:
- Create a Visual Studio project with the "Integration Services Project" template.
- In the project, right-click within the Connection Managers window and select New Connection from the menu.
- In the Description column, select CData ADP Connection Manager and click Add...
- Configure the component as described in the next section.
Alternatively, if you have an existing project and CData ADP Source or CData ADP Destination:
- Right-click your CData ADP source or destination component in your data flow
- Select Edit... to open an editor window.
- Click the New... button next to the Connection manager: dropdown selector to create a connection manager.
- Configure the component as described in the next section.
Connecting to ADP
Before configuring your connection, ensure you have obtained and formatted your SSL client certificate as described in Before You Connect.
To connect to ADP, set the following properties:
- OAuthClientId: The client Id of the custom OAuth application you obtained from ADP.
- OAuthClientSecret: The custom OAuth application's client secret.
- SSLClientCert: The full file path to your SSL client certificate. If using a .pem file, ensure it contains both the Private Key and Public Certificate. If using a .pfx file, ensure it was created with the correct export password. See Before You Connect for more information.
- SSLClientCertPassword: The password for the SSL client certificate, if applicable.
- UseUAT: The component makes requests to the production environment by default. If using a developer account, set UseUAT = true.
- RowScanDepth: The maximum number of rows to scan for the custom fields columns available in the table (default=100). Setting a high value may decrease performance.
