Building the Connection URL

Use the connection URL to supply connection information to the data store that you are accessing. The examples below show the format of the connection URL for the Simba Jira JDBC Connector:

jdbc:jira://;Host=[InstanceURL];Port=[PortNumber];
Auth_Type=Basic Authentication;UID=[YourUsername];
PWD=[YourPassword];[Property1]=[Value];[Property2]=[Value];...

The variables are defined as follows:

  • [InstanceURL] is the URL of the Jira instance that you are connecting to.
  • [PortNumber] is the number of the TCP port that the Jira server uses to listen for client connections.
  • [YourUsername] is the user name that you use to access Jira.
  • [YourPassword] is the password corresponding to your Jira user name.
  • [Property] and [Value] are any one of the other connection properties supported by the connector and the value for that property. For information about all the supported connection properties, see Driver Configuration Options.

For example, to connect to Jira, you would use the following connection URL:

jdbc:jira://;Host=jira.example.com;Port=8080;
Auth_Type=Basic Authentication;UID=jsmith;PWD=simba12345

Important:

Do not duplicate properties in the connection URL.
