I have a scenario ,
If I have created an entity adding five fields from table  ! and I have to add one more field /sixth field/ in the entity.
what will be the procedure to add field from table ?
Do I have to recreate the data entity or is there any other way through which I can add new field in the entity Data source fields and staging table?

    Hi Junaid,
     
    No need to create a new entity - Just drag and drop the fields from Datasource to the Data entity fields. If the field is not visible at DataSource level, just right click the data entity and click on Restore. Also add the new field to field groups also if required.
    After that right click the data entity and click on Update staging table - This will add the field to staging table also.
     
    Thanks,
    Girish S.
