About Connections for Semantic Models

A connection must have the System connection field selected to make it available for semantic model development.

In Oracle Analytics, you need DV Content Author permissions to create connections to data sources.

To make a data source connection available to semantic models, you must select the System Connection checkbox when you create the connection. You can't edit the data source's System Connection option after setting up the connection.

Go to the Oracle Analytics Home Page and click Create, then Connection to connect to each database that you're modeling. Make sure to click the System connection checkbox..
