About Available Data Sources

You can include other Oracle Application Express data sources in Websheets. Once defined, you can incorporate these data sources into Websheet page sections.

Websheets can include the following data sources:

Data Grids

Data grids are highly customizable, editable tabular reports. Data grids enable you to maintain data within the Websheet that is stored within the Oracle Database. See "Managing Data Grids."

Reports

Reports are queries defined against tables or views that exist within your Oracle Database. See "Adding Data Reports."

Enabling Support for Creating Data Reports

To define a data report, your Websheet developer must enable the Allow SQL attribute on the Application Properties page.

By default, this attribute is disabled.

To enable support for creating data reports:

• Contact your developer.
  Only a Websheet application developer can edit the Allow SQL attribute on the Application Properties page.
