The CData Tableau Connector for Twilio models the Twilio API as relational tables and views. These are defined in schema files, which are simple, text-based configuration files.

API limitations and requirements are documented in this section; you can use the SupportEnhancedSQL feature, set by default, to circumvent most of these limitations.

Tables

The connector models the data in tables so that it can be easily queried and updated with standard SQL.

Views

Views are tables that cannot be modified. Typically, data that are read-only and cannot be updated are shown as views.
