DbFace only supports relational data sources, but you can also refine your No-SQL or any other data sources and make them work with DbFace.

DbFace provides a flexible user defined data source API that allows the extraction of data that is not stored in a database or when there is no standard connector available.

You can create your own API connector to make any data sources work with DbFace.

DbFace API connector connect to No-SQL databases

DbFace will curl your data via the API connector and make a copy of the response. You can always click the "Sync" button to let DbFace get the fresh data from your data source. The API connector must fit the JSON schema for working with DbFace:

{
   "table1": {
      "schema": [
         {
            "name": "field1",
            "type": "text"
         },
         {
            "name": "field2",
            "type": "text"
         }
      ],
      "data": [
         {
            "field1": "d11",
            "field2": "d12"
         },
         {
            "field1": "d21",
            "field2": "d22"
         }
      ]
   }
}

Supported data types:

  • text
