Hi, Please can you suggest on the following : Export to Data Lake is depreciated by Microsoft in Oct 2024 this year. So, what is the best alternate solution to extract the data from ERP FO solution for reporting? How to extract data from Field Service & CE ERP solution? OData connector is not good option as it is very slow & I cannot build incremental load on this. 

Hi, I created a field StorageReportIndicator in a table to rank the records in the table. This rank is a SQL window function RANK which combines table fields initially loaded from the data source (StorageUnit and ReferenceDateTime below) and lookup fields via table joins (DSA.Datum table, fields WeekKey and DayOfWeek).  Goal is to have a rank to determine the first record of each week for each storageUnit. The outcome afer execution is that all records have rank 1 which is incorrect. I verified this with the same SQL statement in Management Studio.Could it be that this window function does not have the right result since the lookup is done after the rank is calculated? Note, the table is not historical and incremental. Anyone with experience with this case and is there a proper solution?

As shown in Figure Syncronize Task is sucessfully completed, but Transfer Task gets an below error “System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlTypeException: SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 ”PM even though my date range starts from 2002 and ends at 2023.Even though after suggestion by @Christian Hauggaard i have made changes in setting of Date Conversition and selected MS SQL Min/Max option, but once i change the setting then i gets the below error for same process,“System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Execution Timeout Expired.  The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): The wait operation timed out”(This error is geeting for those tables who has Date Column, and date column has such data (for example 03/01/2022 6:42 PM ) )​​​​​​​What are steps to solve above error? 

Hi all, I have an data source that gets daily refreshed in the ODX. With some tables, I have encountered the following error. Does anyone knows how I can resolve this? Thanks in advance!

Hi,I am trying to connect to a REST API that uses OAuth2 authentication.The API documentation is very clear on what to include in the authentication:  I have entered all this information in the REST CData provider and I can successfully use the provider’s “Authorize OAuth” button.However, when I try to test the connection, error “401 - Unauthorizated” is returned.In the API documentation, they state that the token needs a prefix “Bearer “.I suspect my error is caused by the REST CData provider sending the authorization header without the Bearer prefix, like so:Authorization: {ACCESS_TOKEN}Which the API of course does not accept. Is there any way to include a prefix to the token in the authorization header?

Hi, can you provide me with detailed instructions on how to set it up?

When configuring the CData Microsoft Sharepoint (23.0.8669) provider for extracting a Sharepoint List, we encounter a problem with the button ‘Authorize OAuth’. We are configuring the data source in ODX Server 20.10.40 and TX version is also 20.10.40.The following settings are configured:According to the CData documentation AzureAD should be used as Auth Scheme to leverage OAuth to authenticate, we also use this exact same setting and the same app registration for another data source using the Excel Online provider for which all is ok.However, when using ‘Authorize OAuth’ with the Sharepoint provided, we get the following error:What could be causing this? Changing the file or location for OAuth does not matter at all, we have also tried other versions of the provider but they all give this error. Also, changing Initiate OAuth to ‘REFRESH’ does not have an effect.

In order to retrieve meteorological data from The Netherlands, we want to use the Open Data API developed by the Dutch Meteorological Institute (KNMI). This website contains all relevant information on using the API.In summary, these are the steps that we want to undertake. Anyone can do this, because of the anonymous API key that is open to public:Locate the ‘Anonymous API key’, can be found on the KNMI documentation website Determine the dataset name, version and filename to establish the correct endpoint In this example we want to use the following endpoint: https://api.dataplatform.knmi.nl/open-data/v1/datasets/etmaalgegevensKNMIstations/versions/1/files/KIS___OPER_P___OBS_____L2.nc/url Execute the GET call (make sure to use Authorization header in combination with the anonymous API key The GET call returns a download URL pointing to the KNMI Amazone AWS storage which can be easily used in Postman to retrieve the data (in x-netcdf format)Would you like to try the above in Postman a

Our ODX is hosted on a separate VM in Azure. We followed the suggestion to use the size DS2_v2, but we encountered frequent “System Out of Memory exception was thrown” errors that caused the ODX to stop. We are planning to switch to E2_ads_v5, which has twice the memory, but I am curious if anyone else has faced this issue and has any advice.

I have a table with a varchar(max) field (stored in Dedicated Pool, which is a data source). and it won’t come through to ADLS Gen2 (ODX, version 6284.1). I’m using the Azure Synapse provider.The longest field contains almost 4 million characters, but I’ve been unable to figure out whether this is a limitation in TX or Azure. Does anyone know?

We use Sharepoint for multiple data sources. Connecting the Sharepoint Lists works fine and I have a OAuth for Excel Online running as well, but my data source throws an error: Cannot find file.  I need to handle multiple files according to this documentation:https://support.timextender.com/data%2Dsources%2D112/connect%2Dto%2Dexcel%2Dfiles%2Dwith%2Dexcel%2Donline%2D628 What’s the reason for this?  My App Permissions are set accordingly: My Setup looks like this:  

Hi community, I am trying to work with the LinkedIn API to retrieve details about UGC posts (i.e. engagements, clicks, etc.). This information is not part of the LinkedIn Marketing Solutions CDATA connector, so I am using the CDATA provider for REST 2022. I first made a call to the posts API to ‘Find Posts by Account’: Posts API - LinkedIn | Microsoft Learn. After that I need to pass each Post ID into the Organizational Entity Share Statistics API to ‘Retrieve Statistics for Specific UGC Posts’: Organization Share Statistics - LinkedIn | Microsoft Learn. The problem I am facing is that the Posts API returns two types of posts (which cannot be filtered in the API): shares and UcgPosts. Each of those types of posts needs a different URL format in the ‘Organizational Share Statistics’ API. So, I need a way to only pass one type of post into the second API. UCG posts are posts where the ID starts with 'urn:li:ugcPost:'The file RSD 1.txt works, until the first ID from the Posts API is a Ucg

I’m struggling with the TimeXtender SAP Table Data Source version 18 in ODX Server v6429.1. In our current setup we use Table Name filtering like this: Please see the wildcards used. How does this translate to ODX Server v21? I have these three rules: The latter does not seem to work. I tried many variations (and did a sync data source consecutively), but when I click Select Tables under a transfer task, it only comes up with the tables matchin an equal-rule. Tables that should match a like-rule never show up: Using equal and wildcards doesn’t work either Any advice on how I should filter tables properly?

Hi community,I have a MariaDB data source which I connect to using ODX Server (v 6346) and the CData/ADO.net connector for MariaDB v 23.0.8565.0.The source database is set to collation utf8mb4_general_ci. I noticed by copying from ODX Server to a Data Area that some special characters are slightly different than the source/ODX. I can fix this by manually changing the data type to nvarchar instead of varchar, but that is a lot of field editing.The Override Data Type function can help as well, but as we have a wide range of field lengths, this also means a lot of override rules.Is there a way to tell ODX Server that all varchar fields should be unicode/nvarchar by default (eg. based on the source database collation)?Example from ODX Server. These fields should all be nvarchar(xx) instead of varchar(xx): Implementing this idea would work for me as well :) In TX v20 Business Units, we had this option: 

Hi,We are unable to set up Notification on Critical Errors for the ODX Server. Both service and database for the ODX is on prem. The Exchange Server is deployed as a hybrid.

Hi all,For one of my current client's we are rectrieving a warning while syncing the odx. The task is completed and we can transfer the data. but the warning is a bit odd.We already tried to remove the folder from the data lake and try a full load. but this didn't fix the warning. Anyone any ideas?

I’ve detected an error (sended to support) with the packages that use full load and if the incremental rule it’s defined with a datatime field.The error it’s in the ODX transfer and I’m using a SQL data source.Hope this help you.

I am working on a project with 3 environments Dev, UAT, and Prod. I scheduled ODX transfer task to run every 15 minutes.But any scheduled tasks are not working, I have to run the transfer tasks manually  Regards 

I’ve a location with multple different json files. Can i use one connector to this directory and transfer each json file, or need i to make one connector for each file? For csv files i can use one connector, for json it doesn’t seem to work this way...
