The CData Tableau Connector for WordPress models entities in the WordPress API as tables, views, and stored procedures. These are defined in schema files, which are configuration files that you can customize with a text editor.

Stored Procedures are function-like interfaces to the data source. They can be used to search, update, and modify information in the data source.
