Database Explorer
Configure, explore, and import database data
Description
Using the Database Explorer app, you can quickly connect to a database, explore
the database data, and import data from the database to the MATLAB workspace. If
you have minimal proficiency writing SQL queries or want to browse the data in your
database quickly, use this app to interact with your database.
You can:
• Create and configure JDBC and ODBC data sources.
• Establish multiple connections to databases.
• Select tables and columns of interest.
• Fine-tune selection using SQL query criteria.
• Preview selected data.
• Import selected data into MATLAB workspace.
• Save generated SQL queries.
• Generate MATLAB code.
To use Database Explorer for the first time, migrate from Visual Query Builder and
set Database Explorer preferences to initialize the app. For details, see “Working with
Database Explorer”.
