24 FileMaker ODBC and JDBC Guide
Specifying driver properties in the URL subname
Specify the user and password driver properties in the subname of the JDBC URL. These are the properties
that could be passed to the connection when calling the DriverManager.getConnection method via the
Properties parameter.
1 user: an account in the FileMaker database file that uses a privilege set with the extended privilege
Access via ODBC/JDBC
1 password: the password for the account in the FileMaker database file
Basic JDBC URL connection
Format: jdbc:sequelink://<sequelink host IP address>:<port>
This is the URL to connect to the FileMaker database file with no passwords. The port number is always
2399 (you can’t change the JDBC sharing to a different port).
If you are executing the JDBC URL connection on the same machine where the file is located, you can use
jdbc:sequelink://localhost:2399
Example: jdbc:sequelink://17.184.17.170:2399
JDBC URL connection with user name and password defined in the URL
Format:
jdbc:sequelink://<sequelink host IP
address>:<port>;user=<userName>;password=<password>
Example: jdbc:sequelink://17.184.17.170:2399;user=phil;password=jsp
JDBC URL connection with the database name specified in the URL
Format:
jdbc:sequelink://<sequelink host IP address>:<port>;
serverDataSource=<databasename>
Example: jdbc:sequelink://17.184.17.170:2399;serverDataSource=publications
If your database name contains spaces, replace them with the escape characters %20.
Example: jdbc:sequelink://17.184.17.170:2399;serverDataSource=MY%20DATABASE
