Connecting With a Dialect URL

Establishing a connection using SQLAlchemy requires a specific URL format.
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
engine = create_engine("paylocity:///?InitiateOauth=GETANDREFRESH;OAuthClientID=YourClientId;OAuthClientSecret=YourClientSecret;CompanyId=YourCompanyId;")

For SQLAlchemy 2.0, the dialect name is paylocity_2. To establish a connection, use the following URL format:

from sqlalchemy import create_engine
engine = create_engine("paylocity_2:///?InitiateOauth=GETANDREFRESH;OAuthClientID=YourClientId;OAuthClientSecret=YourClientSecret;CompanyId=YourCompanyId;")
