    Hi Kirang

    In the latest version of Appian using Record Types for relationship are the recommended method for connecting different data sources or different tables

    This can also be achieved by -

    1) Creating a view in DB with the tables required and then making a CDT of the view.

    2) (Least Preferred) Having tables joined by foreign key and then creating nested CDT to access data of the linked table via main table

    Please flag the question as answered as it can help other people.
