When you import an EDF file from your on-premise collaboration server or from Exploratory Cloud (exploratory.io), you may see the error which says
Error: Connection ABC-database (id:05aab8889257) not found
This happens because import EDF tries to use database connection and you don’t have it on your Exploratory Desktop. Below is the step to workaround this issue.
For example, If the conneciton is for Amazon Redshift, then you can create a Redshift connection by following this document.
$ cd ~/.exploratory/connections $ grep Redshift *.json
And you’ll find the json file name for the newly created connection.
UNU6UIe7.json: "name": "Redshift-gamma",
ID is the one you see in the error message. So in this example, 05aab8889257 is the ID that you need to use for the conneciton file.
$ mv UNU6UIe7.json 05aab8889257.json
open the JSON file with text editor and change
"id": "UNU6UIe7"
to
"id": "05aab8889257"
and Save It.
Then you should be able to update/refresh data frames, charts, notes, dashboards on the EDF that you imported.
