    How to View Entity Relationship Diagram

    Oracle Analytics Connector for Jira automatically builds relations between tables and fields in Oracle Analytics Desktop. When you upload your Jira data into Oracle Analytics, all tables will be connected in relations based on the logical key field. Thus, users don’t need to relate tables, which is time-consuming manually.

    • You can view ERD during data source creation, using the Preview ERD button as it was described in the Save and Preview Section.
      This ensures that the application’s relations will be built correctly.

    • You can view ERD when the data source is already created, under the Action panel, selecting Preview ERD as it was described in the Additional Features section.
