IBM Lotus Domino Social Edition 9 - Someone was able to connect to this recently?

[Emil_Kos]

Hi,

I know this application doesn't have a native connector built-in, but I still need to connect it.

I found a few different guides, but it looks like I cannot download a driver mentioned in the guide.

Does anyone know how to connect to it with Alteryx or any other modern software?

Hi @Emil_Kos - IBM has offloaded on-prem software a couple of years ago. Domino was acquired by HCL. This may be a reason why finding anything about the product is so hard. You need a valid Domino license to download NotesSQL drover from the HCL licensing portal.

Alternatives would be:

 - CDATA: https://www.cdata.com/drivers/domino/

 - Untested solutions offered by enthusiasts: https://github.com/UziTech/NSF2SQL

Hi @ArtApa,

Thank you very much for your help. I really appreciate the quick turnaround.

Unfortunately, the CDATA connector doesn't support IBM Lotus domino social edition 9:

I used the untested solution from Github. I was able to create an extract and I connected to it but the data seems very unstructured. Do you by any chance know if this is usual? If I will export it directly to the MySQL server the data will be cleaner?
