Path of the connection
To browse, get a sample from, or get the specification for this connection through Pipeline Microservices, the path
property is required in the request body. It can be in the following form :
/{schema}/{table}
This path indicates a table. A table is the only one that can be sampled. Browse on this path to return the specified table. If a database doesn’t supportschema
(for example, MySQL), you can omit the/{schema}
part./{schema}
This path indicates a schema. A schema cannot be sampled. Browse on this path to get all the tables under this schema. Such path is only valid for those databases that supportschema
./
This path indicates the root. A root cannot be sampled. Browse on this path to get all the schemas visible through this connection. If a database doesn’t supportschema
(for example, MySQL), browse on this path will get all the tables visible through this connection.
