Can IA see views (versus physical tables)?

Post by truenorth »

We created views of tables but when I try to import metadata, the views are not available. Is IA only able to work on physical tables only?

There should be no problems with views. Have you granted SELECT privilege to the view for the IA user?

Thanks, guys.

The DBA had checked and confirmed we have SELECT permission on the views. But IA still could not see them.

RESOLVED: In Set Pre-filter, I had to Include Views, which is off by default.
