CreateSchema
Generates a schema file from the metadata of a specified table or view. The generated file is exposed by the driver as a new queryable table. The generated file can be edited to customize column names, data types, and other metadata for the generated table.
CreateSchema
Creates a local schema file (.rsd) from an existing table or view in the data model.
The schema file is created in the directory set in the Location connection property when this procedure is executed. You can edit the file to include or exclude columns, rename columns, or adjust column datatypes.
The driver checks the Location to determine if the names of any .rsd files match a table or view in the data model. If there is a duplicate, the schema file will take precedence over the default instance of this table in the data model. If a schema file is present in Location that does not match an existing table or view, a new table or view entry is added to the data model of the driver.
