Updating query subjects

If you are using a relational data source, you can choose to update only the query subjects instead of performing a full project synchronization. You must perform a project synchronization to synchronize changes in another data source.

The query subject is updated based on the definition in the data source. When you update a query subject, new metadata is fetched from the data source and query items are re-synchronized.

You can also evaluate the query subject, if it is from a relational data source Validating query subjects.

You cannot use the Update Object command for model query subjects.

Procedure

  1. Select one or more query subjects.
  2. Click Tools, Update Object.
    Tip: If you modify the SQL statement in the Query Subject Definition dialog box, an Update Object operation is initiated when you click OK.
