Project-level connections and actions
You can reuse project-level artifacts in multiple maps. You can use the Connections designer in Design Server to define a new project-level connection and its actions, or to select an existing project-level connection and its actions.
For example, you can define a project-level connection to a database that is used as a data source, or target of multiple maps. A project-level action might be an SQL inquiry and schema that multiple maps use to look up the same database.
