The Progress® DataDirect® for JDBC™ for Microsoft SharePoint™ driver supports SQL read-write access for JDBC applications to list resources on Microsoft SharePoint Online. To support SQL access to SharePoint lists, the driver creates a relational map of the SharePoint data model and translates SQL statements to SharePoint requests. In addition, the driver employs a SQL engine component that provides support to SQL constructs unavailable in Microsoft SharePoint. This functionality offers a number of advantages, including support for reporting data and metadata in a form that JDBC applications are ready to use.

For an overview of how the driver exposes SharePoint lists as relational tables, see Introduction to the SharePoint List data model.

The documentation for the driver also includes the Progress DataDirect for JDBC Drivers Reference. The reference provides general reference information for all DataDirect drivers for JDBC, including content on troubleshooting, supported SQL escapes, and DataDirect tools.
