Configuring the ODBC Driver
First, download and install ODBC Driver for your database.
Then, create a User or System DSN (data source name). To do this, open Control Panel, access Administrative Tools, then open either ODBC Data Sources (64-bit) or ODBC Data Sources (32-bit).
Click User or System DSN tab, then click add.
Select a driver and configure DSN.
Connect to database with ODBC
Create a new documentation by clicking Add documentation and choosing Database connection.
In the DBMS field, select Other (ODBC connection).
Select and choose the DSN you created and click connect.
Importing schema
If connection is successful, Dataedo will show a list of objects from the database. You can choose which objects to import.
Confirm the selection by clicking Next.
You can now change the name of your documentation.
Click Import to start the import, and when it ends, close the window with Finish button.
Your database schema has been imported to new documentation in the repository.
