Garoon Connector for CData Sync

Overview

The CData Sync App provides a straightforward way to continuously pipeline your Garoon data to any database, data lake, or data warehouse, making it easily available for Analytics, Reporting, AI, and Machine Learning.

The Garoon connector can be used from the CData Sync application to pull data from Garoon and move it to any of the supported destinations.

Garoon Version Support

The Sync App leverages the Garoon API to enable bidirectional access to Garoon.

Garoon Connector for CData Sync

Establishing a Connection

Adding a Connection to Garoon

To add a connection to Garoon:

  1. In the application console, navigate to the Connections page.
  2. At the Add Connections panel, select the icon for the connection you want to add.
  3. If the Garoon icon is not available, click the Add More icon to download and install the Garoon connector from the CData site.

For required properties, see the Settings tab.

For connection properties that are not typically required, see the Advanced tab.

Connecting to Garoon

In addition to the authentication values, set the following parameters to connect to and retrieve data from Garoon:

  • Url: The URL of your account.

NOTE: Here are accepted URL format for supported versions:

  • Cloud version : https://(subdomain).cybozu.com
  • Package version (Windows environment) : http://(server IP address or host name)/scripts/(installation identifier)/grn.exe
  • Package version (Linux environment) : http://(server IP address or host name)/cgi-bin/(installation identifier)/grn.cgi

Authenticating to Garoon

Garoon supports the following authentication methods.

Password

You must set the following to authenticate to Garoon:

  • User: The username of your account.
  • Password: The password of your account.
  • AuthScheme: Set AuthScheme to Password.

Additional Security

In addition to the mentioned authentication schemes, Garoon offers additional security in the form of both an additional Basic Auth header, and an SSL Certificate.

Basic

Garoon environments using basic authentication will need to pass additional basic credentials. To do so, specify the following:

  • BasicAuthUser - The basic login name.
  • BasicAuthPassword - The basic password.

Client SSL

In addition to your authentication information, Garoon may be configured to require an SSL certificate to accept requests. To do so, set the following:

  • SSLClientCert - The file containing the certificate of the SSL Cert. Or alternatively, the name of the certificate store for the client certificate.
  • SSLClientCertType - The type of certificate.
  • SSLClientCertSubject - (Optional) If searching for a certificate in the certificate store, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.
  • SSLClientCertPassword - If the certificate store is of a type that requires a password, this property is used to specify that password to open the certificate store.

Garoon Connector for CData Sync

Advanced Features

This section details a selection of advanced features of the Garoon Sync App.

User Defined Views

The Sync App allows you to define virtual tables, called user defined views, whose contents are decided by a pre-configured query. These views are useful when you cannot directly control queries being issued to the drivers. See User Defined Views for an overview of creating and configuring custom views.

SSL Configuration

Use SSL Configuration to adjust how Sync App handles TLS/SSL certificate negotiations. You can choose from various certificate formats; see the SSLServerCert property under "Connection String Options" for more information.

Firewall and Proxy

Configure the Sync App for compliance with Firewall and Proxy, including Windows proxies and HTTP proxies. You can also set up tunnel connections.

Query Processing

The Sync App offloads as much of the SELECT statement processing as possible to Garoon and then processes the rest of the query in memory (client-side).

See Query Processing for more information.

Logging

See Logging for an overview of configuration settings that can be used to refine CData logging. For basic logging, you only need to set two connection properties, but there are numerous features that support more refined logging, where you can select subsets of information to be logged using the LogModules connection property.

Garoon Connector for CData Sync

SSL Configuration

Customizing the SSL Configuration

By default, the Sync App attempts to negotiate SSL/TLS by checking the server's certificate against the system's trusted certificate store.

To specify another certificate, see the SSLServerCert property for the available formats to do so.

Client SSL Certificates

The Garoon Sync App also supports setting client certificates. Set the following to connect using a client certificate.

  • SSLClientCert: The name of the certificate store for the client certificate.
  • SSLClientCertType: The type of key store containing the TLS/SSL client certificate.
  • SSLClientCertPassword: The password for the TLS/SSL client certificate.
  • SSLClientCertSubject: The subject of the TLS/SSL client certificate.

Garoon Connector for CData Sync

Firewall and Proxy

Connecting Through a Firewall or Proxy

HTTP Proxies

To connect through the Windows system proxy, you do not need to set any additional connection properties. To connect to other proxies, set ProxyAutoDetect to false.

In addition, to authenticate to an HTTP proxy, set ProxyAuthScheme, ProxyUser, and ProxyPassword, in addition to ProxyServer and ProxyPort.

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.

Data Model

Overview

This section shows the available API objects and provides more information on executing SQL to Garoon APIs.

Key Features

  • The Sync App models Garoon entities like documents, folders, and groups as relational views, allowing you to write SQL to query Garoon data.
  • Stored procedures allow you to execute operations to Garoon
  • Live connectivity to these objects means any changes to your Garoon account are immediately reflected when using the Sync App.

Tables

Tables describes the available tables. Tables are statically defined to model Events, NotificationItems, UserPresence.

Views

Views describes the available views. Views are statically defined to model EventAttendees, Users, Requests, etc.

Stored Procedures

Stored Procedures are function-like interfaces to Garoon. Stored procedures allow you to execute operations to Garoon, including downloading documents and moving envelopes.

Events

Query, create, modify, and delete regarding events.

Select

The Sync App will use the Garoon API to process WHERE clause conditions built with the following columns and operators. The rest of the filter is executed client side within the Sync App.

  • DateTime supports the <, <=, =, >= and > operators.
  • TargetType supports the '=' operator.
  • Target supports the '=' operator.

NOTE: Target and TargetType fields should be used together in the query (i.e If target field is specified in the query, targetType field is also mandatory and vice versa). For example, the following queries are processed server side:

SELECT * FROM Events WHERE DateTime >= '2019-11-22 00:00:00.0'
SELECT * FROM Events WHERE DateTime > '2019-11-22 00:00:00.0'

The authentication type to use to authenticate to the ProxyServer proxy.

Remarks

This value specifies the authentication type to use to authenticate to the HTTP proxy specified by ProxyServer and ProxyPort.

Note that the Sync App will use the system proxy settings by default, without further configuration needed; if you want to connect to another proxy, you will need to set ProxyAutoDetect to false, in addition to ProxyServer and ProxyPort. To authenticate, set ProxyAuthScheme and set ProxyUser and ProxyPassword, if needed.

The authentication type can be one of the following:

  • BASIC: The Sync App performs HTTP BASIC authentication.
  • DIGEST: The Sync App performs HTTP DIGEST authentication.
  • NEGOTIATE: The Sync App retrieves an NTLM or Kerberos token based on the applicable protocol for authentication.
  • PROPRIETARY: The Sync App does not generate an NTLM or Kerberos token. You must supply this token in the Authorization header of the HTTP request.

If you need to use another authentication type, such as SOCKS 5 authentication, see FirewallType.

Garoon Connector for CData Sync

ProxyUser

A user name to be used to authenticate to the ProxyServer proxy.

Remarks

The ProxyUser and ProxyPassword options are used to connect and authenticate against the HTTP proxy specified in ProxyServer.

PseudoColumns

This property indicates whether or not to include pseudo columns as columns to the table.

Remarks

This setting is particularly helpful in Entity Framework, which does not allow you to set a value for a pseudo column unless it is a table column. The value of this connection setting is of the format "Table1=Column1, Table1=Column2, Table2=Column3". You can use the "*" character to include all tables and all columns; for example, "*=*".

Garoon Connector for CData Sync

Timeout

The value in seconds until the timeout error is thrown, canceling the operation.

Remarks

If Timeout = 0, operations do not time out. The operations run until they complete successfully or until they encounter an error condition.

If Timeout expires and the operation is not yet complete, the Sync App throws an exception.

Garoon Connector for CData Sync

UserDefinedViews

A filepath pointing to the JSON configuration file containing your custom views.

Remarks

User Defined Views are defined in a JSON-formatted configuration file called UserDefinedViews.json. The Sync App automatically detects the views specified in this file.

You can also have multiple view definitions and control them using the UserDefinedViews connection property. When you use this property, only the specified views are seen by the Sync App.

This User Defined View configuration file is formatted as follows:

  • Each root element defines the name of a view.
  • Each root element contains a child element, called query, which contains the custom SQL query for the view.

For example:

{
	"MyView": {
		"query": "SELECT * FROM Events WHERE MyColumn = 'value'"
	},
	"MyView2": {
		"query": "SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE Id IN (1,2,3)"
	}
}
Use the UserDefinedViews connection property to specify the location of your JSON configuration file. For example:
"UserDefinedViews", C:\Users\yourusername\Desktop\tmp\UserDefinedViews.json
Note that the specified path is not embedded in quotation marks.
