This section provides a walk-through to writing ODBC data access code to SAP Cloud for Customer in Python, using the pyodbc module.

See Data Model for more information on the available API objects and any API limitations or requirements. See SQL Compliance for the SQL syntax.

Connecting from Python

See Getting Started for the prerequisite information you need to deploy the driver and configure the connection to SAP Cloud for Customer.

Dependencies describes the necessary steps to install pyodbc. Once it is prepared, refer to Connecting to connect to SAP Cloud for Customer.

Executing SQL

Use pyodbc functions to execute SQL on SAP Cloud for Customer:

• See Querying Data to execute SELECT statements and iterate over the results.
• See Modifying Data to execute other SQL data manipulation statements.
• See Parameterized Statements to execute parameterized statements. Parameterized statements provide a means to efficiently execute queries more than once and to mitigate SQL injection attacks.
