The RESTful FHIR API is a web API, based on HTTP (not SQL). I'm not aware of any ODBC driver for it.
To connect, you could use one of the reference implementation libraries. Open source libraries are available for a variety of programming languages, including .NET/C#, Java, Swift, JavaScript, Python, and Pascal.

General purpose web service tools such as curl and Postman may also be useful for simple tasks.
