The Data Load Page
Use the Data Load dashboard page to make more data available to your Oracle Autonomous Database. You can load data from files or databases, from links to external databases or cloud storage files, or from a live feed of data from cloud storage.
From the Data Load page, you can also explore the data in your autonomous database and manage your cloud storage locations.
If you do not see the Data Load card then your database user is missing the required DWROLE role.
To reach the Data Load page, click the Data Studio tab in the Database Actions page and select the Data Load pane.
You can alternatively click the Selector
icon and select Data Load from the Data Studio menu in the navigation pane.
The Data Load Dashboard provides a central location for all data load and live feed tasks. The various icons on the dashboard, provide access to loading data, linking data, setting up an ongoing feed, checking data load jobs, and managing connections.
