Grant connection from PowerShell Connector access to Staatsalmanak (KOOP, NL)

To retrieve the data from PowerShell Connector we create a link via Invantive Bridge Online. This creates a "bridge" between the cloud of Invantive and the standard OData connector that is available in every version of PowerShell Connector. You do not need to install anything locally: no connector, no ado.NET provider and no PowerShell Connector add-on neither.

Execute the following steps to safely use the data from Staatsalmanak (KOOP, NL) outside of Invantive Cloud:

  1. Next to the database you will find an orange text requesting you to allow access from your current location (IP address). Select the nearby orange button.

  2. You must completely disable IP address checking by entering an asterisk ("*") since Microsoft PowerShell Connector consists of hundreds of thousands of servers across the globe.

You are now ready to import the Staatsalmanak (KOOP, NL) data into PowerShell Connector.
