Edit an Oracle connection
You can edit an Oracle connection to add tables and columns.
To edit a connection:
-
Navigate to the Data workspace > Connections.
-
Select the connection you want to edit.
-
Click Edit
-
You have the option to change the connection name and update the connection details, by selecting the appropriate option and making any changes needed, and selecting Next to go to the next page.
-
Expand the database table dropdown menu, and select the tables and columns you want to add.
-
Click Validate and Save to save the updated connection detail.
Validate metadata
You can now validate connections to discover any changes in metadata after the connection was created. When you validate a connection, ThoughtSpot provides a JSON file containing details on any metadata changes. Once alerted to a metadata change, you can use TML to update the connection.
To validate your connection:
-
Navigate to the Data workspace > Connections.
-
Select the name of the connection you want to validate, and click Validate.
-
If ThoughtSpot detects any changes to the connection’s metadata, it displays an appropriate message. Else, it gives a message stating successful validation.
To remove a table from a connection, delete it from the connection details page. For more information, see: Delete an Oracle connection.
See the Connection reference for details of connection parameters.
