Dashboards and Data feeds : Data feeds : Data feed operators : Data source operators : JDBC
JDBC
Extracts data from a preconfigured JDBC database.
JDBC database connections can be defined in the Business Analytics Admin console. See Manage Data Sources and Drivers.
The following parameters are available.
Parameters
Description
Data source
List of available JDBC connections
Refresh rate ()
Specifies the time until the source file is read in again. Default value is 30 sec.
SQL query
Input field to enter any SQL query command.
e. g. SELECT * FROM <table name>
Note:  
Technically, execution of DDL (data definition language) commands, such as create or insert is not prohibited, however, we recommend that you do not run this type of command with Business Analytics. To minimize the risk of accidental changes to the database schema used, we recommend accessing the database schema via a role or user with only a read-only privilege.
Insert parameter ()
Inserts user defined input parameters at cursor position. The button is only clickable if at least one user input parameter, e.g. Text user input, has already been inserted in the feed definition.
Parameter options ()
Enables you to set input parameter options
Authentication
Specifies a HTTP basic access authentication or an existing authentication defined in the Business Analytics administration.
User name and password are required for accessing the source file.
Configure columns
Configures the columns list. Unselect a column for excluding it from the result data. Entering a New name for a column will cause that to be used instead of the original column name in the result. Clicking Reset columns will reload the column list from the data source and undo all changes in the list.
