Important

This connector will be deprecated on December 31, 2024. You are recommended to migrate to ODBC connector by installing a driver before that date.

This article outlines how to use the Copy Activity in an Azure Data Factory or Synapse Analytics pipeline to copy data from Oracle Eloqua. It builds on the copy activity overview article that presents a general overview of copy activity.

Supported capabilities

This Oracle Eloqua connector is supported for the following capabilities:

Supported capabilities IR
Copy activity (source/-) ① ②
Lookup activity ① ②

① Azure integration runtime ② Self-hosted integration runtime

For a list of data stores that are supported as sources/sinks, see the Supported data stores table.

The service provides a built-in driver to enable connectivity, therefore you don't need to manually install any driver using this connector.

Getting started

To perform the Copy activity with a pipeline, you can use one of the following tools or SDKs:

Create a linked service to Oracle Eloqua using UI

Use the following steps to create a linked service to Oracle Eloqua in the Azure portal UI.

  1. Browse to the Manage tab in your Azure Data Factory or Synapse workspace and select Linked Services, then click New:

  2. Search for Oracle and select the Oracle Eloqua connector.

Connector configuration details

The following sections provide details about properties that are used to define Data Factory entities specific to Oracle Eloqua connector.

Linked service properties

The following properties are supported for Oracle Eloqua linked service:

Property Description Required
type The type property must be set to: Eloqua Yes
endpoint The endpoint of the Eloqua server. Eloqua supports multiple data centers, to determine your endpoint, login to https://login.eloqua.com with your credential, then copy the base URL portion from the redirected URL with the pattern of xxx.xxx.eloqua.com. Yes

useEncryptedEndpoints Specifies whether the data source endpoints are encrypted using HTTPS. The default value is true. No
useHostVerification Specifies whether to require the host name in the server's certificate to match the host name of the server when connecting over TLS. The default value is true. No
usePeerVerification Specifies whether to verify the identity of the server when connecting over TLS. The default value is true. No

Example:

{
    "name": "EloquaLinkedService",
    "properties": {
        "type": "Eloqua",
