The Business Analyst and Developer documentation views are available with Version 2022.3. The Business Analyst view is applied by default, and provides a streamlined view of your data source. For example, the Business Analyst view for a SQL Server data source will display information such as SQL Server databases and tables. The Developer view records more detailed and granular information, such as security logins and roles, SQL Server Agent Jobs, etc. Note:  Starting a Snapshot Request sends the request to the assigned remote agent. After the snapshot has completed, the remote agent generates documentation, and uploads the snapshot and documentation to Database Mapper. Schedule a snapshot using the Database Mapper CommandLine executable. Note:  If you are requesting a snapshot for the first time, you must first authenticate using the command provided in the window.
