Hi,

 

I would like to know if it is possible to use SQL Views and Indexed Views as sources and/outputs and how it is done if it is possible.

 

Thank You.

A View or Table can be used in the input (standard or In-DB) tools.  No sure what you mean as far as using a view for an output- maybe you could provide more detail there?

For input, If we can query Views and Index Views, and the same idea for output if we can query those.

Jason,

Can you supply the exact steps to connect to the SQL view as I can only see the SQL tables?

Regards,

I tried this with Snowflake and while I wasn't able to see Views in the visual query builder at first, I could find Views in the "Tables" tab to the left of the Visual Query Builder. Once I select a View from the "Tables" section, it would then populate in the Visual Query Builder. I also was able to use the SQL Editor to query from existing views.
