Switching between different contexts of the same connection

When you create more than one context for the same database or file connection, the menu Switch context is accessible from the connection. This menu enables you to select the context on which you want to execute the current analysis.

1. In the DQ Repository tree view, expand Metadata > DB connections or Metadata > File Delimited.
2. Right-click the connection exported as a context and select from the contextual menu Switch context.

   

   The Choose context dialog box is displayed.

3. Select from the list the context you want to set for the current connection, and then click OK to close the dialog box.

   

   A confirmation message is displayed prompting you to refresh the connection editor.
4. Click OK to close the message.
   The context has been changed accordingly for the current selection.
