Generate a Mapping from an SQL Query Overview

You can generate a mapping from an SQL query in the Developer tool. To generate a mapping, you can enter an SQL query or you can load a text file that contains the query. Optionally, you can define the source of the query table. The Developer tool validates the SQL query and generates a mapping.
You can also generate a logical data object from an SQL query that contains only SELECT statements.
