I am learning to use Appian within my Appian Community Edition platform. I am able to create a record type to get data model and data from desired data source. but I could not find a way to query data from data source directly on creating an interface. I did search online help, it said that there is a feature: Data Tab on the interface is not available for Appian Community Edition but a professional or enterprise edition. Is it right? Your advice is very appreciated!

You can query data from recordType using a!queryRecordType() and from data store entity using a!queryentity()
Yes, I know can query from recordtype. but this way is to create record type at first. I was wondering if it can query data source directly without using recordtype?
For that you need to configure the external data source in Admin Console and create a Data Store object connected to that external data source and a CDT to map in it and then finally use a!queryentity() to query data.
thank you so much for your response. Yes, I know the way to create a Data store object....my question is about: it said that there is a feature: Data Tab on the interface is not available for Appian Community Edition but a professional or enterprise edition. Is it right?
No, there is no such feature available.
got it. Thank you very much!
