    Hi fxs7576,

    I'm not aware of a guided walkthrough, but we can work to get a technical resource to work with you directly. Can you reach out to your Sisense account team? They will be able to get that set up for you.

There is an easier way to manage the connections.  You can turn on connection management through Admin/feature management (https://docs.sisense.com/main/SisenseLinux/about-connecting-sisense-with-data-sources.htm).

Once connection management is turned on (wait about 10 minutes the first time for the system to upgrade the existing connections) you can then use the v2 connection-rest-controller API methods.  This feature has been available since L2023.7

    Hi dehrlich and DRay ,

    Really appreciate for the reply. I can now see the live connection that I need via. GET api/v2/connections endpoint.

    Is there any tutorial on how to switch the connection of the datamodel to the existing live connection using connection-rest-controller API methods?
