Create a Data Source Node

You create a Data Source node after creating a workflow. To create a Data Source node and attach data to it:

1. In the Components pane, go to the Workflow Editor and expand Data.

   If the Components pane is not visible, then in the SQL Developer menu bar, go to View and click Components. Alternately, press Ctrl+Shift+P to dock the Components pane.

2. In the Data section, click Data Source node icon.

3. Drag and drop the Data Source node from the Components pane to the Workflow pane. This adds the Data Source node to the workflow. The Define Data Source dialog box opens.

4. In the Define Data Source dialog box, you can select a table or view. By default, the tables in your schema are listed. You can add tables from other schemas to which you have access, in the Edit Schema List dialog box.

5. Click Next.

6. In the Define Data Source - Select Columns dialog box, add or remove attributes to the table.

7. Click Finish.

8. In the Select Table window, select the table or view to use. Click OK. The Properties pane displays information about the table or view that you selected. The node can now be run.

   The default name of the node is the name of the table or view that you select. If SH.CUSTOMERS as the table, the node is named CUSTOMERS.
