    • Including TDSX and TWBX files
  • Getting connection information from data sources and workbooks
    • Server Name
    • Username
    • Database Name
    • Authentication Type
    • Connection Type
  • Updating connection information in workbooks and data sources
    • Server Name
    • Username
    • Database Name
  • Getting Field information from data sources and workbooks
    • Get all fields in a data source
    • Get all fields in use by certain sheets in a workbook

We don't yet support creating files from scratch, adding extracts into workbooks or data sources, or updating field information

As of 2021, this SDK no longer supports Python 2.
