        To enable {siteNameShort} to use data from {datasource}, you first must add the
        connector, as follows:
      </p>
      <ol>
        <li>Open the <strong>Connections</strong> page of the {siteNameShort} dashboard.</li>
        <li>Click <strong>Add Connection</strong> to open the <strong>Select Connectors</strong> page.</li>
        <li>
          Click the <strong>{destination ? "Destinations" : "Sources"}</strong> tab and locate
          the <strong>{title}</strong> row.
        </li>
        <li>
          Click the <strong>Configure Connection</strong> icon at the end of that row to open
          the <strong>New Connection</strong> page. This action opens the{' '}
          <strong>Add Connection</strong> dialog box.
          <br />
          <strong>Note:</strong> If the <strong>Configure Connection</strong> icon is not
          available, click the <strong>Download Connector</strong> icon to install
          the {title} connector.
        </li>
        <li>Enter a name for your connection in the <strong>Add Connection</strong> dialog box.</li>
        <li>Click <strong>Add</strong> to open the <strong>Settings</strong> tab for your connector.</li>
      </ol>
      <p>
        For more information about installing new connectors, see{' '}
        <a href="../connections">Connections</a>.
      </p>
    </>;

export const CommonDatasourceIntroSource = ({datasource = "the data source", siteName = "CData Sync"}) => {
  return <p>
      You can use the {datasource} connector from the {siteName} application to capture data
      from {datasource} and move it to any supported destination. To do so, you need to add
      the connector, authenticate to the connector, and complete your connection.
    </p>;
};

export const driverVersion = "M";

export const siteNameShort = "Sync";

export const siteName = "CData Sync";

export const datasource = "Odoo";

export const advancedurl = "OE";

<CommonDatasourceIntroSource datasource={datasource} siteName={siteName} />

## Prerequisite

To allow {siteNameShort} to determine which models your user can access in {datasource}, the connected user must have read permissions for `ir.model.access` (an internal {datasource} model that manages access rights). While this permission is reserved typically for administrators, you can grant it to any user by creating a service group, as explained below:

1. As an administrator, open the {datasource} settings page and enable developer mode. If this mode is not available, you might need to login as the superuser instead.
2. Navigate to the **Groups** page (available below the **Users** drop-down list) and create a new group.
3. Set **Application** to **Administration** and **Name** to **Service Access**.
4. On the **Users** tab, add users who need service access.
5. On the **Access Rights** tab, enter the model (`ir.model.access`), select the **Read Access** checkbox, and name your service group **Inspect Models**.
6. Save the new group.

If you cannot grant access by creating a new group, then you should set <a href="#check">**Check Permissions**</a> to **False**. This action displays all models in {datasource} as tables, regardless of your user's actual permissions for those models.

## Add the Odoo Connector

<CommonDatasourceAddConnector datasource={datasource} title={pageTitle} destination={false} siteNameShort={siteNameShort} />

## Authenticate to Odoo

After you add the connector, you need to set the required properties.

* **URL:** Enter the base URL for your {datasource} database (for example, https\://*MyCompany*.odoo.com).
* **User:** Enter the username that you use to authenticate to {datasource}.
* **API Token:** Enter the API token (or password) that you use to authenticate to {datasource}.
* **{datasource} Edition:** Select the edition of {datasource} that you want to use.
  * **{datasource} Online** (default)
  * **{datasource} OnPremise:** With this edition, you must also enter the name of the {datasource} database to which you want to connect. Enter the name in the **Database** text box.

## Complete Your Connection

To complete your connection:

1. <a name="check" />For **Check Permissions**, select whether you want to use {datasource} user permissions to determine which tables and lists to view. By default, the **Enable** checkbox is already selected.
2. Define advanced connection settings on the **Advanced** tab. (In most cases, though, you should not need these settings.)
3. Click **Create & Test** to create your connection.
