Connection Requirements Reference

Modeler Connect is where you log into a cloud application, a database, or upload a file. You can preview and search the sheets or tables, select tables and columns, and filter the rows to bring into Birst. The left side of the screen lists the tables, and the right side previews the rows and columns.

• The preview in Modeler Connect uses 100 rows.
• Filters do not yet support wildcards or partial strings.
• After selecting columns and setting filters, click Done to save the definition of the connection.
• For now the definition supports ANDs, not ORs.
• Click Import to pull the data into Birst.
• The Importing progress displays. Click Cancel if you need to cancel the import.
• Birst treats Integer type columns as measures.
