Views
Views are similar to tables in the way that data is represented; however, views do not support updates. Data sources that are represented as views are typically read-only data sources. Often, a stored procedure is available to update the data if such functionality is applicable to the data source.
Queries can be executed against a view as if it were a normal table, and the data that comes back is similar in that regard. To find out more about tables and stored procedures, please navigate to their corresponding entries in this help document.
Views are composed of columns and pseudo columns.
