Note:

The Workflow data provider types are only available to systems licensed for Workflow.

Data providers return from a data source information to be displayed in a dashboard. New dashboards cannot be used unless at least one data provider is added to it.

Note:

For information about using dashboards, see the Reporting Dashboards module reference guide.

The Create Data Provider Wizard is used to create new data providers. The process is the same for copying an existing data provider or creating a completely new data provider, except the options are pre-configured with the information from the data provider that was copied if you choose to copy an existing data provider. The pre-configured options for copied data providers can be changed or edited to reflect the requirements of the new data provider, unless otherwise noted.

The configuration process depends on the data provider type selected. This table describes the data provider types available for systems with Workflow licensed.
