Grant connection from Power Automate Connector access to Tixly
To retrieve the data from Power Automate 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 Power Automate Connector. You do not need to install anything locally: no connector, no ado.NET provider and no Power Automate Connector add-on neither.
Execute the following steps to safely use the data from Tixly outside of Invantive Cloud:
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.
You must completely disable IP address checking by entering an asterisk ("*") since Microsoft Power Automate Connector consists of hundreds of thousands of servers across the globe.
You are now ready to import the Tixly data into Power Automate Connector.
Configure Power Automate Connector connector for Tixly
You will now pull in Power Automate Connector data from Tixly through the established link.
Please note again that Invantive Cloud under the hood handles all complexity such as setting up credentials such as a refresh token, acquiring an access token, optimizing and parallelizing access, accessing an API within the rate limits, scopes and security restrictions. There is absolutely no need for knowledge on complex technical topics such as OAuth access tokens or API. The Microsoft Azure Data Factory steps, activities and pipelines can be constructed using just the OData feed and basic authentication.
Execute the following steps:
-
Start Microsoft Power Automate Connector and select 'Ingest'.
-
Select 'Built-in copy task'.
-
Select source type 'OData' and select 'New connection'.
-
Enter in the window the Bridge Online URL of the Power Automate Connector database. This URL containing the data can be found in the Database-form of Invantive Cloud. Choose authentication type 'Basic authentication'. Enter the Invantive Cloud user name and password.
