# List the OLEDB providers

List the OLEDB providers available in the system by using the [GetOleDbProviders method](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/November2025/Subsystems/EngineJSONAPI/Content/service-global-getoledbproviders.htm).

## Example

[](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/Subsystems/EngineAPI/Content/Sense_EngineAPI/CreatingAppLoadingData/ConnectToDataSources/list-OLEDB-providers.htm)

#### The goal is to list the OLEDB providers available in the system.

The handle of the request is -1 because the [GetOleDbProviders method](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/November2025/Subsystems/EngineJSONAPI/Content/service-global-getoledbproviders.htm) applies at global level.

The client sends:

```
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 0,
  "method": "GetOleDbProviders",
  "handle": -1,
  "params": []
}
```

The engine returns:

```
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 0,
  "result": {
    "qOleDbProviders": [
      {
        "qName": "SQLOLEDB",
        "qDescription": "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server"
      },
      {
        "qName": "MSDataShape",
        "qDescription": "MSDataShape"
      },
      {
        "qName": "SQLNCLI11",
        "qDescription": "SQL Server Native Client 11.0"
      },
      {
        "qName": "ADsDSOObject",
        "qDescription": "OLE DB Provider for Microsoft Directory Services"
      },
      {
        "qName": "SQLNCLI10",
        "qDescription": "SQL Server Native Client 10.0"
      },
```

```
      ...
```

```
      {
        "qName": "SQLOLEDB Enumerator",
        "qDescription": "Microsoft OLE DB Enumerator for SQL Server",
        "qBit32": true
      },
      {
        "qName": "MSDAOSP",
        "qDescription": "Microsoft OLE DB Simple Provider",
        "qBit32": true
      },
      {
        "qName": "MSDAORA",
        "qDescription": "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle",
        "qBit32": true
      },
      {
        "qName": "MSIDXS",
        "qDescription": "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Indexing Service",
        "qBit32": true
      }
    ]
  }
}
```

The list of the OLEDB providers is returned.
