Access level: read, write
Parallel job access is not possible due to restrictions of Microsoft Access Driver.
Connection settings
| Database file | The full path to the Access database file (accdb file). The file must already exist in the file system of the Jedox Cloud environment. |
| Password | Password for the connection to the database (optional). |
| Additional JDBC parameters |
Optional: database-specific parameters that are added to the generated JDBC URL. Refer to the documentation of the database vendor for a list of possible values. |
Note: the Access connection internally uses the UCanAccess JDBC driver with following implications:
- Column names are changed in the UCanAccess JDBC to uppercase.
- Some special characters in column names (e.g "?") will be replaced with the underscore character.
- There are some limitations in the SQL function IIF: not all of the types are supported as 2nd and 3rd arguments.
- For huge database files, by adding parameter memory=false, the memory usage is lower, but establishing a connection requires more time.
