connecting directly to db kind of goes against the whole concept of having an API
The API is there to help and present the functionality the developers want you to see and use.
Going directly to the db could create all sorts of problems..data integrity etc
Cant you access the sales orders from the API? what ar eyou trying to do exactly?
- 3 years agoWe are Manufacturing company and we have folder machine which have drawing software. That software sends customer name and sales order line to sql db. Then my team have to go to your software and re-enter them in sales order. it takes huge time and we have to do a lot of rework. i just need connectivity to sql where we can store our data directly in sales order tables. If you have any api method that can help us in inserting and reading data from any tables it will solve our issue .

deeppatin, If you are familar with Power BI /Power Query it can read data from API's and SQL tables quiet easily.
There are also various power bi options to write back data to an SQL database if you try to goole Power BI write back.For MYOB entering myob transactions you can use the import process in the software to get sales item records into your MYOB data files or get a developer to write some code to POST transactions to api.
Good Luck with your project!
