Data Browser

The Data Browser provides an in depth look at a target system. Currently there are only the LDAP and JDBC connectors that provide extra details for a connector. The data browser is opened by right clicking a Connector in either the library or in an AssemblyLine.

In the navigator you can right click and choose Browse Data to open a new editor window where you can browse data within the current connection setup by the connector.

In the AssemblyLine you can do the same and have a new window opened for the data browser:

  • Generic Data Browser
    This is the data browser used for those connectors that the Configuration Editor has no explicit knowledge of. It provides a simple way to browse a result set from the data source.
  • Stream Data Browser
    The stream based data browser is used when a connector uses a parser. The stream based data browser will first initialize the connector and try to obtain the input stream and show the first 20K of input data in the details tab.
  • JDBC Data Browser
    The JDBC data browser shows all tables and views in the left hand side. The details tab shows information for the selected item in that list.
  • LDAP Data Browser
    The LDAP data browser shows the schema and context prefixes (search bases) that the LDAP server provides.
