Adding Database Connectivity to Your Project

To add Database connectivity to your project:

  1. Open Workbench, select the Project tab in the ribbon and select the Configure button. This launches the Install applications configuration in a database dialog.

  2. From the SQL Server drop-down, confirm the name of the SQL Server containing the configuration database for Workbench. The SQL Server currently used by Workbench should be already pre-selected.

    NOTE: For more information on Authentication refer to Microsoft SQL Server authentication options.

  3. From the Database drop-down, select the database where to add the Databases connectivity tables and select Next. If possible, select the configuration database that is currently used by Workbench.

    NOTE: it is possible to enter a new database name to create the Databases connectivity tables in a new database.

  4. In the applications list, identify the Databases row and select Install/Overwrite. You can optionally select Sample Data to include the sample configuration.

  5. Select Install. The required objects to enable Databases connectivity will be created.
