The CData ADO.NET Provider for Pipedrive implements two ADO.NET interfaces you can use to retrieve data from Pipedrive: PipedriveDataAdapter and PipedriveDataReader objects. Whereas PipedriveDataAdapter objects retrieve a single result set of all the data that matches a query, PipedriveDataReader objects fetch data in subset increments as needed.

Using the PipedriveDataAdapter

Use the adapter's Fill method to retrieve data from the data source. An empty DataTable instance is passed as an argument to the Fill method. When the method returns, the DataTable instance is populated with the queried data. Note that the PipedriveDataAdapter is slower than the PipedriveDataReader because the Fill method needs to retrieve all data from the data source before returning.

The following example selects the Id and UserEmail columns of the Deals table:

C#

string connectionString = "AuthScheme=Basic;CompanyDomain=MyCompanyDomain;APIToken=MyAPIToken;";

using (PipedriveConnection connection = new PipedriveConnection(connectionString)) {
  PipedriveDataAdapter dataAdapter = new PipedriveDataAdapter(
  "SELECT Id, UserEmail FROM Deals", connection);

  DataTable table = new DataTable();
  dataAdapter.Fill(table);

  Console.WriteLine("Contents of Deals.");

  foreach (DataRow row in table.Rows) {
    Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", row["Id"], row["UserEmail"]);
  }
}

VB.NET

Dim connectionString As String = "AuthScheme=Basic;CompanyDomain=MyCompanyDomain;APIToken=MyAPIToken;"

Using connection As New PipedriveConnection(connectionString)
  Dim dataAdapter As New PipedriveDataAdapter("SELECT Id, UserEmail FROM Deals", connection)

  Dim table As New DataTable()
  dataAdapter.Fill(table)

  Console.WriteLine("Contents of Deals.")

  For Each row As DataRow In table.Rows
    Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", row("Id"), row("UserEmail"))
  Next
End Using
