OData

Category: OData

Generic OData connection. Basic authentication requires a username and password.

Connection requirements​

  • URL
  • Authentication type
  • HTTP headers

Where to find these​

These values come from the provider of the OData service; they are documented in that provider's API documentation.

  • URL: the service root of the OData feed (often ending in /odata). Append /$metadata to the service root to inspect the data model (entities and fields).
  • Authentication type: anonymous, basic, or header — depending on what the service requires. For Basic, enter the username and password the provider issued to you.
  • HTTP headers: any extra headers the API requires (for example, an API key header). The provider's documentation states which headers are needed.

For an explanation of OData services, see the official documentation: OData — Getting Started / Basic Tutorial.
