Connect to Klaviyo Data in CloverDX (formerly CloverETL)

The CData JDBC Driver for Klaviyo enables you to use the data transformation components in CloverDX (formerly CloverETL) to work with Klaviyo as sources and destinations. In this article, you will use the JDBC Driver for Klaviyo to set up a simple transfer into a flat file.

Connect to Klaviyo as a JDBC Data Source

1. Create the connection to Klaviyo data. In a new CloverDX graph, right-click the Connections node in the Outline pane and click Connections -> Create Connection. The Database Connection wizard is displayed.
2. Click the plus icon to load a driver from a JAR. Browse to the lib subfolder of the installation directory and select the cdata.jdbc.klaviyo.jar file.
3. Enter the JDBC URL.

   To authenticate to Klaviyo, provide an API Key. You can generate or view your API keys under 'My Account'

   1. Navigate to 'Settings' > 'API Keys'
   2. Click 'Create API Key'.
   3. Name your API key and choose the desired scopes.

   To connect in your CData solutions, set API Key to your Klaviyo API key.

   If you wish to use OAuth authentication, refer to the Help documenation.

   Built-in Connection String Designer

   For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the Klaviyo JDBC Driver. Either double-click the JAR file or execute the jar file from the command-line.

   java -jar cdata.jdbc.klaviyo.jar
   

   Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.

   A typical JDBC URL is below:

   jdbc:klaviyo:APIKey=my_api_key;

Query Klaviyo Data with the DBInputTable Component

1. Drag a DBInputTable from the Readers selection of the Palette onto the job flow and double-click it to open the configuration editor.
2. In the DB connection property, select the Klaviyo JDBC data source from the drop-down menu.
3. Enter the SQL query. For example:

   SELECT Id, Name FROM Campaigns WHERE Status = 'draft'

Write the Output of the Query to a UniversalDataWriter

1. Drag a UniversalDataWriter from the Writers selection onto the jobflow.
2. Double-click the UniversalDataWriter to open the configuration editor and add a file URL.
3. Right-click the DBInputTable and then click Extract Metadata.
4. Connect the output port of the DBInputTable to the UniversalDataWriter.
5. In the resulting Select Metadata menu for the UniversalDataWriter, choose the Campaigns table. (You can also open this menu by right-clicking the input port for the UniversalDataWriter.)
6. Click Run to write to the file.
