    • After configuring the ODBC driver, test that the driver can connect to the base instance as the ODBC user and can query data from a target table.

    Avant de commencer

    You must have administrator-level access for the Windows computer on which you want to test the ODBC driver.

    Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

    To test the connection, run the ODBC Administrator program.

    1. In Windows, navigate to Start > Programs > ServiceNow ODBC > ODBC Administrator.
      The ServiceNow ODBC data source is installed as a system data source.
    2. Select the System DSN tab, and then select the ServiceNow data source.
    3. Click Configure.
      ServiceNow system data source
    4. Click Test Connect in the ODBC driver Setup dialog box.

    5. Enter the login credentials.

      These are the usual ServiceNow base system login credentials for the ODBC user you created.
