API POUR JEDOX

Java API for OLAP (In-Memory DB)

In addition to the HTTP API in the Jedox OLAP server itself, you can also connect to OLAP by using a Java library and the Java API it provides. The library (palojlib) is included in the Jedox installation, and is also available as part of the Jedox SDK. The Java API provides all functions necessary for establishing a connection to the In-Memory DB, retrieving data, and creating or modifying database contents.

An overview and documentation of all functions provided in the Jedox Java API can be found in the PHP Palo API Documentation, which is available online or as a download.

Integrator Scripting API

In Jedox Integrator, the use of scripting languages is foreseen in the following components:

Groovy functions and jobs

Besides the functionality of the scripting language, Jedox Integrator provides several classes with additional functionality related to Jedox Integrator processing. The methods of the different classes are listed below. Examples for the use of script functions and jobs can be found in the sample Jedox Integrator projects sampleGroovyOlap.xml, sampleGroovyFunction.xml, sampleGroovyJob.xml, and ETLTasks.xml (located in <InstallpathJedoxSuite\ tomcat\ webapps\ etlserver\ data\ samples>).

Tableau Server Connection

Jedox Integrator currently supports connections to Tableau 10.5 and later. The connector can be used with the Tableau REST API. Tableau .tde files are no longer supported; the connector only supports .hyper files.

For this connection a Tableau Connector License is required.

Notes:

To use this component, the Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013 has to be installed on the system where Jedox is running. Tableau SDK and Tableau Extract API must be downloaded and unzipped, and the respective file path of the bin folders must be added to the system “path” variable. Please refer to Tableau’s documentation.
Existing TDE file connections will be automatically migrated to TableauHyperFile connections, but the file extension must be manually changed from *.tde to *.hyper.
Logs can be read by adding environment variables TAB_SDK_LOGDIR and TAB_SDK_TMPDIR to the desired paths, if desired.

How to Connect Jedox and Tableau (TDE File)

Jedox PowerBI Connection

https://knowledgebase.jedox.com/knowledgebase/load-powerbi/

This component defines a connection to Microsoft’s Power BI, a business analytics service. This connection is then used in a PowerBI Load to load the data from Jedox into Power BI, where it can be used for analysis and visualization.

To use Power BI, you must have an active subscription to Office 365 with Power BI and a Power BI license from Jedox.

The connection requires two steps:

Creating an app in Azure Active Directory that enables Jedox to communicate securely with Power BI
Creating an PowerBI connection in Jedox Integrator

Note: the Power BI API has some limitations, including an hourly limit of 1,000,000 rows per dataset. Please refer to Microsoft’s documentation on Power BI REST API Limitations for details.

1. Setting up the Azure Active Directory app

To connect to a Power BI instance from Jedox, you must first create an application (app) in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). This can be done from one of the following Microsoft links:

When you set up the app, you should apply the following settings:

The application type must be native/client-native.
Set the sign-on URL to http://localhost (this sign-on URL is not used with native apps).
Select “Power BI Service” as the API. If this option is not on the list, then you probably don’t have a license for it.
For permissions, select all delegated permissions except those that require admin consent.
Copy the Application ID (Client ID) for use in the next step, setting up the PowerBI connection in Jedox Integrator.

For details, please refer to Microsoft Azure App Services Documentation.

2. Setting up the PowerBI connection in Jedox Integrator

Main Settings

Azure Application ID:	The application ID in Azure Active Directory (also called App ID or Client ID), as established in step 1 above.
Group Name:	Name of the Power BI group. The group’s workspace will be the target of Power BI loads. If no group is specified, the default workspace of the user is used.
User Name:	Power BI user name (Microsoft Office 365 user name)
Password:	Power BI user password

Advanced Settings

Verify: the certificate is verified.
Trust: the certificate is imported to the keystore if not yet available.
