Data connections and database aliases

You connect to sources of data through data connections. Data connections are created and administered in the Data Connections dashboard in d/EPM Administration. In Application Studio the previous term Database Alias has been retained.

The Database Structure pane lists the available data connections.

You can log on to a data connection in these ways:

  • Double-click the connection
  • Right-click the connection and select Log On
  • Select the connection and click Log On in the toolbar of the pane
