This is the module for fetching data from a database. Currently supports database vendors PostgreSql, MSSQL, Oracle, DB2,  MySQL and MariaDB. Additional database vendors can easily be added, please contact [email protected] with your request.

The database reader module is used when you would like to read data from the database and present the data in a dashboard.

The database reader is set to read only. However, since some databases might ignore this, it is recommended to use a read-only database user accessing the database.

Parameters

• Database Connection – defined in Administrator -> Connections
• Query – the SQL query to be run by VBU

Available output fields

Determined by the selected fields in the select SQL.
