Adobe Analytics - CData Cloud

Overview

CData Cloud offers access to Adobe Analytics across several standard services and protocols, in a cloud-hosted solution. Any application that can connect to a SQL Server database can connect to Adobe Analytics through CData Cloud.

CData Cloud allows you to standardize and configure connections to Adobe Analytics as though it were any other OData endpoint or standard SQL Server.

Key Features

  • Full SQL Support: Adobe Analytics appears as standard relational databases, allowing you to perform operations - Filter, Group, Join, etc. - using standard SQL, regardless of whether these operations are supported by the underlying API.
  • CRUD Support: Both read and write operations are supported, restricted only by security settings that you can configure in Cloud or downstream in the source itself.
  • Secure Access: The administrator can create users and define their access to specific databases and read-only operations or grant full read & write privileges.
  • Comprehensive Data Model & Dynamic Discovery: CData Cloud provides comprehensive access to all of the data exposed in the underlying data source, including full access to dynamic data and easily searchable metadata.

CData Cloud

Getting Started

This page provides a guide to Establishing a Connection to Adobe Analytics in CData Cloud, as well as information on the available resources, and a reference to the available connection properties.

Connecting to Adobe Analytics

Establishing a Connection shows how to authenticate to Adobe Analytics and configure any necessary connection properties to create a database in CData Cloud

Accessing Data from CData Cloud Services

Accessing data from Adobe Analytics through the available standard services and CData Cloud administration is documented in further details in the CData Cloud Documentation.

CData Cloud

Establishing a Connection

Connect to Adobe Analytics by selecting the corresponding icon in the Database tab. Required properties are listed under Settings. The Advanced tab lists connection properties that are not typically required.

Connecting to Adobe Analytics

To connect to Adobe Analytics, both the GlobalCompanyId and RSID must be identified. By default, the Cloud attempts to identify your company and report suite automatically. However, you can also specify these values explicitly:

Global Company Id

The GlobalCompanyId is an optional connection property. If left empty, the Cloud attempts to automatically detect the Global Company ID. To find the Global Company ID:

  1. Locate it in the request URL for the users/me endpoint on the Swagger UI.
  2. Expand the users endpoint, then click GET users/me.
  3. Click Try it out > Execute.
  4. Set the GlobalCompanyId connection property to the Global Company ID shown in the request URL immediately preceding the users/me endpoint.

Report Suite Id

RSID is also an optional connection property. If not set, the driver tries to detect it automatically. To view all of your report suites and their identifiers, go to Admin > Report Suites.

Authenticating to Adobe Analytics

Adobe Analytics uses the OAuth authentication standard. You can authenticate with OAuth integration or Service Account integration.

User Accounts (OAuth)

You must set AuthScheme to OAuth for all user account flows.

Service Account

Service accounts have silent authentication, which does not require user authentication in the browser.
You need to create an application for this flow. Review Creating a Custom OAuth App to create and authorize an application. You can then connect to Adobe Analytics data that the service account has permission to access.

Server-to-Server OAuth

Set the AuthScheme to OAuthClient to authenticate with this method.

Set the following properties to connect:

  • OAuthClientId: Set to the client Id in your app settings.
  • OAuthClientSecret: Set to the client secret in your app settings.

When you connect, the Cloud completes the OAuth flow for a service account.

CData Cloud

Creating a Custom OAuth App

You must create a custom OAuth app to connect to the Adobe Analytics.

Create an App for OAuth Integration

Follow the steps below to create a custom app and obtain the connection properties in a specific OAuth authentication flow.

  1. Navigate to the following URL: https://console.adobe.io/home.
  2. Click the Create new project button.
  3. Select the Add API option.
  4. Select Adobe Analytics, click Next, and then select OAuth and then click Next again.
  5. Select the Web option and fill out the redirect URIs. For a desktop application, you can use a localhost URL such as https://localhost:33333. For a web application, supply the URL of the page to redirect to on your website.
  6. Click Save configured API.
Your client is now created. Notice your client has an Client ID (API Key) and a Client Secret. These will be needed to get your auth code and to generate access tokens.

Create an App for Service Account Integration

Use the following steps to create a custom app and obtain the connection properties in a specific Service Account authentication flow.

  1. Navigate to the following URL: https://console.adobe.io/home.
  2. Click Create new project.
  3. Select Add API.

For Server-to-Server OAuth:

  1. Select Adobe Analytics, click Next, then select OAuth Server-to-Server and click Next again.
  2. Select one or more product profiles (you can set app permissions in product profiles) and click Save configured API.

Your client is now created. You will have the Client ID (API Key) and Client Secret, which are needed to generate access tokens.

CData Cloud

SSL Configuration

Customizing the SSL Configuration

By default, the Cloud attempts to negotiate TLS with the server. The server certificate is validated against the default system trusted certificate store. You can override how the certificate gets validated using the SSLServerCert connection property.

To specify another certificate, see the SSLServerCert connection property.

CData Cloud

Firewall and Proxy

Connecting Through a Firewall or Proxy

HTTP Proxies

To authenticate to an HTTP proxy, set the following:

  • ProxyServer: the hostname or IP address of the proxy server that you want to route HTTP traffic through.
  • ProxyPort: the TCP port that the proxy server is running on.
  • ProxyAuthScheme: the authentication method the Cloud uses when authenticating to the proxy server.
  • ProxyUser: the username of a user account registered with the proxy server.
  • ProxyPassword: the password associated with the ProxyUser.

Other Proxies

Set the following properties:

  • To use a proxy-based firewall, set FirewallType, FirewallServer, and FirewallPort.
  • To tunnel the connection, set FirewallType to TUNNEL.
  • To authenticate, specify FirewallUser and FirewallPassword.
  • To authenticate to a SOCKS proxy, additionally set FirewallType to SOCKS5.

CData Cloud

Data Model

The CData Cloud models Adobe Analytics objects as an easy-to-use SQL database, using views and stored procedures. These are defined in schema files, which are simple, easy-to-read text files that define the structure and organization of data.

Views

The Views section, which lists read-only SQL tables, contain samples of what you might have access to in your Adobe Analytics account.

The following views are included with the application:

UniversalReport

Run a unified report that includes all configured dimensions and metrics for a broad view of user behavior and performance.

View Specific Information

Select

This view includes every available dimension and metric. To create a valid custom Adobe Analytics report, ensure your SELECT query includes at least one metric column along with any desired subset of dimension columns from the list.

To define the reporting period, specify the StartDate and EndDate in your WHERE clause. If no dates are specified, the report defaults to a period starting from two years ago up to today. If only a StartDate is provided, the EndDate defaults to today, and if only an EndDate is provided, the StartDate defaults to two years ago from the specified EndDate.

You can also filter the report to a specific segment by including the SegmentId column in the WHERE clause. For instance, an example query might be:

SELECT [Time Spent on Page - Bucketed], [Browser], [Browser Height - Bucketed], [Browser Type], [Average Page Depth], [Average Time Spent on Site (seconds)], [Bot Occurrences], [Bot Page Views], [Bounce Rate] FROM [UniversalReport] 
WHERE [StartDate] = '2023-01-01' AND [EndDate] = '2023-01-31' AND [SegmentId] = 's300012345_1234567890'

This approach enables you to generate a tailored report by choosing the specific columns and applying the necessary date range and segment filters directly in your query.

Stored Procedures

Stored procedures are function-like interfaces that extend the functionality of the Cloud beyond simple SELECT operations with Adobe Analytics.

Stored procedures accept a list of parameters, perform their intended function, and then return any relevant response data from Adobe Analytics, along with an indication of whether the procedure succeeded or failed.

CData Cloud - Adobe Analytics Stored Procedures

Name Description
CreateReport Generates a custom analytics report by specifying desired dimensions, metrics, segments, and time range.

CData Cloud

CreateReport

Generates a custom analytics report by specifying desired dimensions, metrics, segments, and time range.

Stored Procedure Specific Information

Use the CreateReport stored procedure to generate a custom static report. This procedure provides a way to generate new view definitions with a custom combination of dimensions and metrics. Calling it creates a new schema file that you can query like any other view.

You must set the Location connection property to the folder containing the new script files in order to access them.

You can retrieve metric and dimension Ids by querying the Metrics and Dimensions views. For example:

SELECT Id, Name FROM Dimensions
SELECT Id, Name FROM Metrics

To include calculated metrics in your report, you can retrieve the metric Id by running the following query:

SELECT Id, Name FROM CalculatedMetrics

To use a new schema along with the default schemas, set the Location property to the db subfolder in the installation folder. Then you can make any of the following calls:

EXEC CreateReport DimensionIds = 'variables/geocountry, variables/geocity', MetricIds = 'metrics/pageviews, metrics/visits', TableName = 'MyCustomReport'
EXEC CreateReport DimensionIds = 'variables/geocountry, variables/geocity', MetricIds = 'metrics/pageviews, metrics/visits', TableName = 'MyCustomReport', DefaultDateRage = '2025-01-01/2025-01-30'
EXEC CreateReport DimensionIds = 'variables/geocountry, variables/geocity', MetricIds = 'metrics/pageviews, metrics/visits', TableName = 'MyCustomReport', DefaultDateRage = '2025-01-01/2025-01-30', DefaultSegmentId = 's3642_649ae61b5a255650b8391f9d'
Note that dimensions and metrics must have their respective Ids specified in the DimensionIds and MetricIds inputs.

Input

Name Type Required Description
TableName String True The name for the new table.
Description String False An optional description for the table.
WriteToFile String False Specifies whether to write the contents of this stored procedure to a file. The default value is true. Set to false to return file data through FileStream or FileData.
DimensionIds String True A comma-separated list of dimension Ids.
MetricIds String True A comma-separated list of metric Ids.
AllowOverride String False When WriteToFile is set to true and a file with the same name already exists, this parameter specifies whether the file should be overwritten.

The default value is false.

DefaultDateRage String False The date range that is used as the default when executing the created report. If the date range is not specified, a range of 2 years is applied up to the date the report is executed. This value can be overridden when executing the report by specifying the StartDate and EndDate parameters. The accepted format is StartDate/EndDate (for example, 2023-01-01/2023-12-31).
DefaultSegment String False An optional default segment to add to the report. Only one value is allowed.

Result Set Columns

Name Type Description
FileData String The generated schema file as a base64 string if WriteToFile is set to false; null otherwise.
Success String Specifies whether the schema was created successfully.
SchemaFile String The generated schema file path if WriteToFile is set to true; null otherwise.

Reporting Views

Reports are shown as views, which are tables that cannot be modified. There are four types of report views:

  • Custom reports defined in your Adobe Analytics instance.
  • The UniversalReport view, which includes every available dimension and metric. Use it to create dynamic custom Adobe Analytics reports by selecting a subgroup of metrics and dimension columns.
  • Custom static reports generated by the CreateReport Stored Procedure.
  • Predefined report views, which are standard reports that replicate the output of Adobe Analytics report templates. The available predefined report views include: KeyMetrics, LastTouchChannel, LastTouchChannelDetail, Orders, PageOccurrences, Pages, PageViews, Products, Revenue, SiteSections, TrackingCode, Units, Visitors, Visits.

Unlike traditional database views, however, it is not very helpful to select all metrics and dimensions in a given table. Date is the default dimension for every report, so the query:

SELECT * FROM MyReport
becomes:
SELECT Date, {all the metrics here} FROM MyReport
But if the query has criteria, then the default dimensions are the dimensions used in the criteria. For example:
SELECT * FROM MyReport WHERE Country = 'England'
becomes:
SELECT Country, {all the metrics here} FROM MyReport WHERE Country = 'England'

Additionally, the Adobe Analytics API limits the number of dimensions you can request data from per REST API call to one. This means that the only way for the provider to generate reports with multiple dimensions is to divide dimensions into parts.

Let's take a query example:

SELECT Country, City, Visits FROM MyReport
  • First, the provider requests all the values of the first dimension, Country. In this example they are England and Germany.
  • Second, the provider tries to divide England into parts using the dimension City, and it gets London and Liverpool.
  • Finally, it divides Germany into parts using City and gets: Berlin and Frankfurt.
If we have a third dimension, the provider divides every city into parts with the third dimension (which makes one request per city).

Now, imagine a four dimensional report where dimensions have many values. Typically, the generation of that report would require a lot of API calls. However, the Adobe Analytics API allows us to provide some filters that can significantly shorten the execution time of the query.

The Adobe Analytics API uses the following logical operators: 'AND', 'OR', and 'NOT', and also uses the 'MATCH', 'CONTAINS', 'BEGINS-WITH' and 'ENDS-WITH' operators, which means that criteria such as the ones below are handled server-side:
... WHERE Dimension = 'Value'
... WHERE Dimension LIKE '%value%'
... WHERE Dimension1 LIKE '%value' AND Dimension2 = 'Value2'
... WHERE Dimension LIKE 'value%'
... WHERE Dimension1 = 'Value1' AND Dimension2 = 'Value2'
... WHERE Dimension = 'Value1' OR Dimension = 'Value2' OR Dimension = 'Value3'
... WHERE Dimension IN ('Value1', 'Value2', 'Value3', 'Value4')
... WHERE (Dimension1 = 'value1' OR Dimension1 = 'Value2') AND (Dimension2 = 'value3' OR Dimension2 = 'value4')
CData strongly recommended that you use as many filters as possible; otherwise queries with many dimensions can take a lot of time.

Defining Custom Reports

To create a report view on a query, you can use the CreateReport stored procedure. This stored procedure provides an easy way to generate new view definitions with a custom combination of dimensions and metrics. Calling it creates a new schema file that you can query like any other view.

The stored procedure takes a view name, a comma-separated list of metric names, a comma-separated list of metric Ids, a comma-separated list of dimension names, a comma-separated list of dimension Ids, and an output folder as inputs.

Set the Location connection property to the folder containing the new script files in order to access them (you can set Location instead of the output folder).

Get the metric and dimension Ids by querying the Metrics and Dimensions views, as shown below:

SELECT Id, Name FROM Dimensions
SELECT Id, Name FROM Metrics

For example, to use a new schema along with the default schemas, set the Location property to the db subfolder in the installation folder and make the following call:

EXEC CreateReport Dimensions = 'Country, City', Metrics = 'PageViews, Visits', TableName = 'MyCustomReport'

Possible Values

OAuth, OAuthClient

Data Type

string

Default Value

"OAuth"

Remarks

  • OAuth: Uses OAuth authentication using a standard user account.
  • OAuthClient: Uses OAuth authentication using an OAuth service account. (Server-to-Server)

CData Cloud

GlobalCompanyId

Specifies the Global Company ID tied to your Adobe Analytics account.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The Global Company ID is a unique identifier assigned to your Adobe Analytics organization. This value distinguishes your organization from others in Adobe’s system and is required for making authenticated API requests. If this property is not set, the provider attempts to detect the first available company ID tied to your account automatically.

CData Cloud

RSID

Specifies the Report Suite ID (RSID) associated with the Adobe Analytics data you want to query.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The Report Suite ID identifies the specific set of Adobe Analytics data you want to access.

You can find your RSID on the Adobe Analytics platform by navigating to Admin > Report Suites.

If this property is not set, the Cloud attempts to detect the first available RSID tied to your account automatically.

CData Cloud

OAuth

This section provides a complete list of the OAuth properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.


PropertyDescription
OAuthClientIdSpecifies the client ID (also known as the consumer key) assigned to your custom OAuth application. This ID is required to identify the application to the OAuth authorization server during authentication.
OAuthClientSecretSpecifies the client secret assigned to your custom OAuth application. This confidential value is used to authenticate the application to the OAuth authorization server. (Custom OAuth applications only.).
ScopeSpecifies the scope of the authenticating user's access to the application, to ensure they get appropriate access to data. If a custom OAuth application is needed, this is generally specified at the time the application is created.
CData Cloud

OAuthClientId

Specifies the client ID (also known as the consumer key) assigned to your custom OAuth application. This ID is required to identify the application to the OAuth authorization server during authentication.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property is required in two cases:

  • When using a custom OAuth application, such as in web-based authentication flows, service-based authentication, or certificate-based flows that require application registration.
  • If the driver does not provide embedded OAuth credentials.

(When the driver provides embedded OAuth credentials, this value may already be provided by the Cloud and thus not require manual entry.)

OAuthClientId is generally used alongside other OAuth-related properties such as OAuthClientSecret and OAuthSettingsLocation when configuring an authenticated connection.

OAuthClientId is one of the key connection parameters that need to be set before users can authenticate via OAuth. You can usually find this value in your identity provider’s application registration settings. Look for a field labeled Client ID, Application ID, or Consumer Key.

While the client ID is not considered a confidential value like a client secret, it is still part of your application's identity and should be handled carefully. Avoid exposing it in public repositories or shared configuration files.

For more information on how this property is used when configuring a connection, see Establishing a Connection.

CData Cloud

OAuthClientSecret

Specifies the client secret assigned to your custom OAuth application. This confidential value is used to authenticate the application to the OAuth authorization server. (Custom OAuth applications only.).

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property (sometimes called the application secret or consumer secret) is required when using a custom OAuth application in any flow that requires secure client authentication, such as web-based OAuth, service-based connections, or certificate-based authorization flows. It is not required when using an embedded OAuth application.

The client secret is used during the token exchange step of the OAuth flow, when the driver requests an access token from the authorization server. If this value is missing or incorrect, authentication fails with either an invalid_client or an unauthorized_client error.

OAuthClientSecret is one of the key connection parameters that need to be set before users can authenticate via OAuth. You can obtain this value from your identity provider when registering the OAuth application.

Notes:

  • This value should be stored securely and never exposed in public repositories, scripts, or unsecured environments.
  • Client secrets may also expire after a set period. Be sure to monitor expiration dates and rotate secrets as needed to maintain uninterrupted access.

For more information on how this property is used when configuring a connection, see Establishing a Connection

CData Cloud

Scope

Specifies the scope of the authenticating user's access to the application, to ensure they get appropriate access to data. If a custom OAuth application is needed, this is generally specified at the time the application is created.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

Scopes are set to define what kind of access the authenticating user will have; for example, read, read and write, restricted access to sensitive information. System administrators can use scopes to selectively enable access by functionality or security clearance.

When InitiateOAuth is set to GETANDREFRESH, you must use this property if you want to change which scopes are requested.

When InitiateOAuth is set to either REFRESH or OFF, you can change which scopes are requested using either this property or the Scope input.

CData Cloud

SSL

This section provides a complete list of the SSL properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.


PropertyDescription
SSLServerCertSpecifies the certificate to be accepted from the server when connecting using TLS/SSL.
CData Cloud

SSLServerCert

Specifies the certificate to be accepted from the server when connecting using TLS/SSL.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

If you are using a TLS/SSL connection, use this property to specify the TLS/SSL certificate to be accepted from the server. If you specify a value for this property, all other certificates that are not trusted by the machine are rejected.

This property can take the following forms:

Description Example
A full PEM Certificate (example shortened for brevity) -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIChTCCAe4CAQAwDQYJKoZIhv......Qw==
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
A path to a local file containing the certificate C:\cert.cer
The public key (example shortened for brevity) -----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----
MIGfMA0GCSq......AQAB
-----END RSA PUBLIC KEY-----
The MD5 Thumbprint (hex values can also be either space- or colon-separated) ecadbdda5a1529c58a1e9e09828d70e4
The SHA1 Thumbprint (hex values can also be either space- or colon-separated) 34a929226ae0819f2ec14b4a3d904f801cbb150d

Note: It is possible to use '*' to signify that all certificates should be accepted, but due to security concerns this is not recommended.

CData Cloud

Logging

This section provides a complete list of the Logging properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.


PropertyDescription
VerbositySpecifies the verbosity level of the log file, which controls the amount of detail logged. Supported values range from 1 to 5.
CData Cloud

Verbosity

Specifies the verbosity level of the log file, which controls the amount of detail logged. Supported values range from 1 to 5.

Data Type

string

Default Value

"1"

Remarks

This property defines the level of detail the Cloud includes in the log file. Higher verbosity levels increase the detail of the logged information, but may also result in larger log files and slower performance due to the additional data being captured.

The default verbosity level is 1, which is recommended for regular operation. Higher verbosity levels are primarily intended for debugging purposes. For more information on each level, refer to Logging.

When combined with the LogModules property, Verbosity can refine logging to specific categories of information.

CData Cloud

Schema

This section provides a complete list of the Schema properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.


PropertyDescription
BrowsableSchemasOptional setting that restricts the schemas reported to a subset of all available schemas. For example, BrowsableSchemas=SchemaA,SchemaB,SchemaC .
CData Cloud

BrowsableSchemas

Optional setting that restricts the schemas reported to a subset of all available schemas. For example, BrowsableSchemas=SchemaA,SchemaB,SchemaC .

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

Listing all available database schemas can take extra time, thus degrading performance. Providing a list of schemas in the connection string saves time and improves performance.

CData Cloud

Miscellaneous

This section provides a complete list of the Miscellaneous properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.


PropertyDescription
IncludeSummaryDataSpecifies whether to include summary records in the data returned from custom reports.
MaxRowsSpecifies the maximum number of rows returned for queries that do not include either aggregation or GROUP BY.
PagesizeSpecifies the maximum number of records per page the provider returns when requesting data from Adobe Analytics.
PseudoColumnsSpecifies the pseudocolumns to expose as table columns, expressed as a string in the format 'TableName=ColumnName;TableName=ColumnName'.
SkipEmptyRowsSpecifies whether the provider skips empty rows in the output when querying report data.
SupportEnhancedBreakDownSpecifies whether the provider uses a breadth-first strategy to retrieve rows for all combinations of dimensions in a multi-level report.
TimeoutSpecifies the maximum time, in seconds, that the provider waits for a server response before throwing a timeout error.
UseSimpleNamesSpecifies whether or not simple names should be used for tables and columns.
CData Cloud

IncludeSummaryData

Specifies whether to include summary records in the data returned from custom reports.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

false

Remarks

This property determines whether the Cloud includes summary records in the output of custom reports.

If this property is set to true, the Cloud includes aggregate values such as totals and averages that summarize the main report data.

If this property is set to false, the Cloud excludes summary records and only includes raw report rows.

Use this property when summary-level insights are relevant to your analysis or reporting needs.

CData Cloud

MaxRows

Specifies the maximum number of rows returned for queries that do not include either aggregation or GROUP BY.

Data Type

int

Default Value

-1

Remarks

The default value for this property, -1, means that no row limit is enforced unless the query explicitly includes a LIMIT clause. (When a query includes a LIMIT clause, the value specified in the query takes precedence over the MaxRows setting.)

Setting MaxRows to a whole number greater than 0 ensures that queries do not return excessively large result sets by default.

This property is useful for optimizing performance and preventing excessive resource consumption when executing queries that could otherwise return very large datasets.

CData Cloud

Pagesize

Specifies the maximum number of records per page the provider returns when requesting data from Adobe Analytics.

Data Type

int

Default Value

5000

Remarks

When processing a query, instead of requesting all of the queried data at once from Adobe Analytics, the Cloud can request the queried data in pieces called pages.

This connection property determines the maximum number of results that the Cloud requests per page.

Note: Setting large page sizes may improve overall query execution time, but doing so causes the Cloud to use more memory when executing queries and risks triggering a timeout.

CData Cloud

PseudoColumns

Specifies the pseudocolumns to expose as table columns, expressed as a string in the format 'TableName=ColumnName;TableName=ColumnName'.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property allows you to define which pseudocolumns the Cloud exposes as table columns.

To specify individual pseudocolumns, use the following format:

Table1=Column1;Table1=Column2;Table2=Column3

To include all pseudocolumns for all tables use:

*=*

CData Cloud

SkipEmptyRows

Specifies whether the provider skips empty rows in the output when querying report data.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

true

Remarks

This property determines whether the Cloud skips empty rows in the output when querying report data.

If this property is set to true, the Cloud omits rows that do not contain any measurable data.

If this property is set to false, all rows are included in the report output, including those without data.

Use this property when you want to exclude meaningless or placeholder rows from your report results.

CData Cloud

SupportEnhancedBreakDown

Specifies whether the provider uses a breadth-first strategy to retrieve rows for all combinations of dimensions in a multi-level report.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

false

Remarks

This property determines how the Cloud retrieves dimension combinations in reports that involve multiple breakdown levels.

If this property is set to true, the Cloud uses a breadth-first approach to include more dimension records per request. Each breakdown level is queried in a wide, flat structure, which is useful when analyzing reports across multiple dimensions. When this property is enabled, the Cloud does not support returning summary data rows. This mode may also result in additional empty rows. To suppress them, enable the SkipEmptyRows property.

If this property is set to false, the Cloud uses a depth-first breakdown strategy. Each record in the root breakdown is queried separately, which is more efficient for single-dimension analysis.

This property only applies to reports created using the CreateReport stored procedure.

CData Cloud

Timeout

Specifies the maximum time, in seconds, that the provider waits for a server response before throwing a timeout error.

Data Type

int

Default Value

60

Remarks

The timeout applies to each individual communication with the server rather than the entire query or operation. For example, a query could continue running beyond 60 seconds if each paging call completes within the timeout limit.

Timeout is set to 60 seconds by default. To disable timeouts, set this property to 0.

Disabling the timeout allows operations to run indefinitely until they succeed or fail due to other conditions such as server-side timeouts, network interruptions, or resource limits on the server.

Note: Use this property cautiously to avoid long-running operations that could degrade performance or result in unresponsive behavior.

CData Cloud

UseSimpleNames

Specifies whether or not simple names should be used for tables and columns.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

false

Remarks

Adobe Analytics tables can include special characters in their names that are typically not allowed in standard databases. This property makes the Cloud easier to use with traditional database tools.

Setting UseSimpleNames to True simplifies the names of the columns that are returned. It enforces a naming scheme where only alphanumeric characters and underscores are valid for displayed column names.

Notes:

  • Any non-alphanumeric characters are converted to underscores.
  • If the column or table names exceed 128 characters in length they are truncated to 128 characters to comply with SQL Server standards.

NSIS 3.10

Copyright (C) 1999-2025 Contributors THE ACCOMPANYING PROGRAM IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS COMMON PUBLIC LICENSE ("AGREEMENT"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.

1. DEFINITIONS

"Contribution" means:

a) in the case of the initial Contributor, the initial code and documentation distributed under this Agreement, and b) in the case of each subsequent Contributor:

i) changes to the Program, and

ii) additions to the Program;

where such changes and/or additions to the Program originate from and are distributed by that particular Contributor. A Contribution 'originates' from a Contributor if it was added to the Program by such Contributor itself or anyone acting on such Contributor's behalf. Contributions do not include additions to the Program which: (i) are separate modules of software distributed in conjunction with the Program under their own license agreement, and (ii) are not derivative works of the Program.

"Contributor" means any person or entity that distributes the Program.

"Licensed Patents " mean patent claims licensable by a Contributor which are necessarily infringed by the use or sale of its Contribution alone or when combined with the Program.

"Program" means the Contributions distributed in accordance with this Agreement.

"Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under this Agreement, including all Contributors.

2. GRANT OF RIGHTS

a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, distribute and sublicense the Contribution of such Contributor, if any, and such derivative works, in source code and object code form.

b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, offer to sell, import and otherwise transfer the Contribution of such Contributor, if any, in source code and object code form. This patent license shall apply to the combination of the Contribution and the Program if, at the time the Contribution is added by the Contributor, such addition of the Contribution causes such combination to be covered by the Licensed Patents. The patent license shall not apply to any other combinations which include the Contribution. No hardware per se is licensed hereunder.

c) Recipient understands that although each Contributor grants the licenses to its Contributions set forth herein, no assurances are provided by any Contributor that the Program does not infringe the patent or other intellectual property rights of any other entity. Each Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for claims brought by any other entity based on infringement of intellectual property rights or otherwise. As a condition to exercising the rights and licenses granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility to secure any other intellectual property rights needed, if any. For example, if a third party patent license is required to allow Recipient to distribute the Program, it is Recipient's responsibility to acquire that license before distributing the Program.

d) Each Contributor represents that to its knowledge it has sufficient copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to grant the copyright license set forth in this Agreement.

3. REQUIREMENTS

A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code form under its own license agreement, provided that:

a) it complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and

b) its license agreement:

i) effectively disclaims on behalf of all Contributors all warranties and conditions, express and implied, including warranties or conditions of title and non-infringement, and implied warranties or conditions of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose;

ii) effectively excludes on behalf of all Contributors all liability for damages, including direct, indirect, special, incidental and consequential damages, such as lost profits;

iii) states that any provisions which differ from this Agreement are offered by that Contributor alone and not by any other party; and

iv) states that source code for the Program is available from such Contributor, and informs licensees how to obtain it in a reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily used for software exchange.

When the Program is made available in source code form:

a) it must be made available under this Agreement; and

b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the Program.

Contributors may not remove or alter any copyright notices contained within the Program.

Each Contributor must identify itself as the originator of its Contribution, if any, in a manner that reasonably allows subsequent Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution.

4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION

Commercial distributors of software may accept certain responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners and the like. While this license is intended to facilitate the commercial use of the Program, the Contributor who includes the Program in a commercial product offering should do so in a manner which does not create potential liability for other Contributors. Therefore, if a Contributor includes the Program in a commercial product offering, such Contributor ("Commercial Contributor") hereby agrees to defend and indemnify every other Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against any losses, damages and costs (collectively "Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and other legal actions brought by a third party against the Indemnified Contributor to the extent caused by the acts or omissions of such Commercial Contributor in connection with its distribution of the Program in a commercial product offering. The obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or Losses relating to any actual or alleged intellectual property infringement. In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a) promptly notify the Commercial Contributor in writing of such claim, and b) allow the Commercial Contributor to control, and cooperate with the Commercial Contributor in, the defense and any related settlement negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor may participate in any such claim at its own expense.

For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial product offering, Product X. That Contributor is then a Commercial Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes performance claims, or offers warranties related to Product X, those performance claims and warranties are such Commercial Contributor's responsibility alone. Under this section, the Commercial Contributor would have to defend claims against the other Contributors related to those performance claims and warranties, and if a court requires any other Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the Commercial Contributor must pay those damages.

5. NO WARRANTY

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Each Recipient is solely responsible for determining the appropriateness of using and distributing the Program and assumes all risks associated with its exercise of rights under this Agreement, including but not limited to the risks and costs of program errors, compliance with applicable laws, damage to or loss of data, programs or equipment, and unavailability or interruption of operations.

6. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR ANY CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

7. GENERAL

If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the terms of this Agreement, and without further action by the parties hereto, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable.

If Recipient institutes patent litigation against a Contributor with respect to a patent applicable to software (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit), then any patent licenses granted by that Contributor to such Recipient under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed. In addition, if Recipient institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Program itself (excluding combinations of the Program with other software or hardware) infringes such Recipient's patent(s), then such Recipient's rights granted under Section 2(b) shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.

All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if it fails to comply with any of the material terms or conditions of this Agreement and does not cure such failure in a reasonable period of time after becoming aware of such noncompliance. If all Recipient's rights under this Agreement terminate, Recipient agrees to cease use and distribution of the Program as soon as reasonably practicable. However, Recipient's obligations under this Agreement and any licenses granted by Recipient relating to the Program shall continue and survive.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute copies of this Agreement, but in order to avoid inconsistency the Agreement is copyrighted and may only be modified in the following manner.
