Good day
I have an SQL server as source of my data. What are my options to import this data to Anaplan?

Sorry for the confusion, the source data is from SQL Database. Can we use Anaplan Connect to automatically import data?
Hi,
The above still applies, Anaplan Connect, and ETL tools can read from SQL databases. Anaplan UI cannot connect to a database, you must give a flat file if you're uploading directly to a model from the UI.

Hi Renier,
The Anaplan Connect guide provides documentation for connecting to a SQL database to extract data. It uses JDBC to connect to your database, and execute a query you define.

Jesse
