Subscribing to a Data Resource
Up one level
Getting a subscription to a database role allows you to execute queries (perform documents) on it. By default you are allowed to subscribe to roles created by yourself. To be able to subscribe to roles created by other people, they need to have given you the client PBAC role on their resource. See the Access Control section for more information.
If you have been given access to a role and it does not appear in your client, try right clicking on the OGSA-DAI service and selecting "Discover existing resources".
Before starting you should ensure that the OGSA-DAI service is listed in your client. If it does not exist you can add it by either left clicking on the "Services" menu item and selecting "Add a service", or dragging the service's WSDL link into the client.
Right click on the role you wish to subscribe to and select "Subscribe". You will be asked to enter a short description for the subscription.
The subscription is now listed in your client. You can execute SQL queries on it directly from the client by right clicking on it and selecting one of "Execute query" or "Execute update" entries. Note this only works on SQL Database types of data resources.
