Connection Droplist

Everytime I create a new dataflow , the "connection" drop list do not show the existing connections but only "create new connection",

in order to use my existing connection I have to fill up the host, HTTP path, etc.


sometimes a existing connection was created by my teammate, and I would have to try so many times filling up the details and hope the existing connection pop out,

which is quite time-consuming, and sometimes it just does not pop out the existing connection because of a tiny difference between the detail I input and my teammate input.


So it will be very useful if the drop down list just automatically provide all the existing connections as option.

  • I'm surprised this hasn't been brought up more frequently. First step should be "is there an existing connection for which you have permission that meets your needs" before you have to type in all the server, database, etc. information EXACTLY (capitalization/case matters for an exact match, even though sql will let you connect with either caps or lower case).
