Database Query Data Feeds

The Database Query Transporter data feed allows you to pull data directly from a database by query and insert the data in its raw or manipulated state into a Archer instance.

The numerous types of supported database connections are Odbc, OleDb, Oracle, SQL, and many others. As long as the connection string is configured successfully and the client driver is installed on the system, Archer can integrate regardless of the database type.
