How to use DCM

Hello Community,

could someone advice me on how to use DCM? I seem to be not able to make it work. 

 

I synced the data source

which is connected to a credential

I set this:

But in Designer when I drag a tool in I just get this:

And can't select the connection, I also tried indb which I will need but there I could not see anything related to DCM.

 

I guess I am doing it wrong somehow and would greatly appreciate any tips or your feedback if it works for you.

 

Thank you and kind regards,


Ben

Hi @BGnichwitz, current DCM is mapped to existing Single Access Point so the click stream is as follows:

  • click on "Set Up a Connection" in the left configuration pane
  • it will open Single Access Point (SiAP) where you need to choose "Data Sources"
  • choose data source e.g. Snowflake
  • and it will open Connection Manager filtered to your Snowflake datasources so you can choose existing or create a new

Please let me know if this helped,

Ondrej

Could I access those creds from the Python tool?
