Description

XTS stands for Extract Table Schema. In this approach, GenRocket can retrieve one, many, or all table schemas from a given database by connecting directly to the database via JDBC to extract the database’s schema. The extracted schema is saved to an encrypted file. The encrypted file can then be imported into the GenRocket web application using XTS Wizard.

What is the XTS Import Wizard?

The XTS File Import Wizard is used to import an extracted application or database table schema into the GenRocket web platform to automatically create Domains with Attributes and Generators.
