I was adding a new datasource to create a Data Module after upgrading to 11.2.4 FP3 and I don't have a menu to load the table meta data. IBM instructions say it should be in the dropdown menu I'm showing in the attached.

Hi Nicholas,

I'm not an administrator and I don't have a 11.2.4 any more, so I can't check this: I think you need to go one strep deeper from databases to database connections to load the metadata. Alternatively you could add a schema of the database in a data module and try to load the meatadata from the context menu of the schema in the source section of the data module.

Best regards,

Philipp

You have to click on the Data server Connection to go to the next level.

Then you can see the Assets in the dropdown menu.
