I have now installed a new version on a new server.
I have downloaded Enhanced datasources.
Now i want to Replcate one of my CData Sources so that i can use TX REST ot TX JSON datasource.
 

The Cata Source i want to replicate is a REST source:
DataModel : FlattenedDocuments
I have my RSD files at: C\RSD\DataSource
Conection requires that i send a bearer token.

So i have sort of figured it out, but just for Basic Auth.
I have manged to create a Connection

 

I usually use CData and wirte RSD files.
Now, i dont know how to do it with TX Enhanced Drivers
When i do this above, i get this in my Data Selection for one table

 

I want somethig like this, which my RSD represents

 


I know that i dont use RSD files with Enhanced Drivers, but how do i get a cleaner structure?

Hi,

TimeXtender REST data source | Community has a lot of examples you can apply. I typically read the .rsd to get an understanding of what needs to be done for that source in general and then go through all the examples to collect what needs to be set up.

Hi,

it isn't directly but the TX Enhanced sources that are available for 20.10.x have almost the same possibilities.

Thank you ​@rory.smith 
I have done extracted some data from APIs with TX Enhanced drivers.
There is however an issue i am facing when i create a so called nested paths:

I was expecting to create a single table for SHA_Manedsrapport_Detaljer

To get UUID from SHA_Manedsrapport i did something like this:

 

I was expectiung to get one table but i got multiple. I suppose it depends on how JSON/XML is returened

 

Even if i turn a blind eye on these tables, how do i join them in ODX-view? There is no common key between them !

This is just one example
