Connect to Miro Data in DBArtisan

The CData ODBC Driver for Miro seamlessly integrates Miro data into database management tools like DBArtisan by enabling you to access Miro data as a database. This article shows how to create an data source for Miro in DBArtisan and execute queries. You can then edit data visually and execute standard SQL.

Integrate Miro Data into DBArtisan Projects

If you have not already, first specify connection properties in an ODBC DSN (data source name). This is the last step of the driver installation. You can use the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to create and configure ODBC DSNs.

Using API Key Authentication

Miro uses API Key authentication with an access token. To generate an access token:

1. Log in to your Miro account
2. Navigate to Settings > Your apps
3. Click "Create new app" or select an existing app
4. Configure the required permissions (e.g., boards:read, teams:read)
5. Install the app and generate an access token
6. Copy the generated access token (it will only be shown once)

After obtaining your access token, set the following connection properties:

• AuthScheme: Set this to APIKey.
• APIKey: Set this to your access token.

Connecting to Miro

Once the authentication is configured, you can connect to Miro and query data from any of the available tables such as Boards, Items, Teams, Organizations, and more.

You can then follow the steps below to register Miro data as a database instance in your project:

1. In DBArtisan, click Data Source -> Register Datasource.
2. Select Generic ODBC.
3. Enter a name for the data source and select the DSN. 👁 The DSN of the data source to be registered. (Salesforce is shown.)
   
4. Finish the wizard to connect to Miro data. Miro entities are displayed in the Datasource Explorer. 👁 The Datasource Explorer. (Salesforce is shown.)
   

You can now work with Miro data as you work with any other database. See the driver help documentation for more information on the queries supported by the Miro API.
