library(dreaconnect)
## Connect to edw tables
edw <- edw_connect()

Connect to DEVL database. Be sure to assign connection to variable for later use.

library(dreaconnect)
## Connect to devl tables
#devl <- devl_connect()

List tables in database:

#list_tables()
#options include "edw" and "devl". Defaults to "edw"

Connect to table:

#location_dim_db <- table_connect(edw, "location_dim")
#vpk_wide_db <- table_connect(devl, "vpk_wide", "devl")

List EDW Table Dictionary

#edw_dictionary()
