Hi,

I'm trying to query tables from postgres database. All tables there are under Foreign tables and nothing under tables. when I use db connect it get the schema name but it couldn't get the list of tables.

How can I access the foreign tables using db connect?

Thanks @VatsalJagani it works fine.

Actually it was a stupid question, but it was going on the opposite direction all the time and couldn't think good 🙂
