Data Source Node

A Data Source node defines source data for the workflow. For example, a Data Source node specifies the build data for a model. Any table or view accessible to the user can be selected as the source. This node does not allow any input node connections. Data Source nodes rely on database resources for their definitions. It may be necessary to refresh a node definition if the database resources change. For example, if the resources are deleted or re-created.

Data Source nodes can run in parallel.

Only certain data types are allowed in a Data Source node. Columns with other data types are excluded.
