Hi ,

I am given an assignment to bring in the data from vorne XL devices to SQL server 2008 r2.

Only information available on the device manual is to use:
POST /sql-request.do HTTP/1.0
Content-Length: 141
response_type=application/json&sql_statement=select sequence_number, start_time
from timeline_stream order by sequence_number desc limit 5;

I am not familiar with the http post or web-service API access.

If I have to bring in data on an hourly basis into SQL server which is the best approach.

Is this done on a .net web application??

Is it possible to schedule a job in SQL to run a windows or console app to bring in data??
Where do I start??
Please help
Jasmin.

Solution 1

Create a Windows Service and for the specific time interval do a HTTP Post Request to get the data.

Refer this article to know more about HTTP WebRequest
