Overview
In this document, we are going to see how to associate views from DB in Wayfast.
What is a View in SQL?
A “View” is a virtual table based on the result-set of an SQL statement. You can think on a query that is stored on SQL and when used by a user, it will look and act just like a table but it’s not because does not have a definition or structure. Also the “View” does not require any storage in a database because it does not exist physically. We can also control user security for accessing the data from the database tables and we can allow users to get the data from the “View” and the user does not require permission for each table or column to fetch data.

Views can be used for certain conditions in our project:
...
A popup is displayed and there’s no need to change any requirement. We are going to synchronize Wayfast to get the new view available for development.
How to associate DB’s Views in Wayfast?

|---|
As precondition, make sure you have an “Active” requirement in Wayfast before starting this process. |
...
In case you have to edit the script, “Synchronize” button will establish the connection to the DB and update what we modified in Wayfast.
Recap
In this document, we learnt that Views are like a virtual table that contains data from one or multiple tables. Then we explained how to create and edit view’s statements in SQL that we can easily synchronize them by selecting the correct instance in Wayfast.
