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!

Can you explain what you mean with "query data from data source directly on creating an interface"?
It is possible that query data from the data source, a pre-configured external database directly but through record type.
No. Records are the way to get access to external data. But in addition to Records, you can use connected systems and integrations to fetch data without a Record. Making this decision depends on your actual use case.
Ok, I will keep your points in mind for how to get data without record type. thank you very much!
