Models

The fundamental unit of modeling — combine schema, metadata, relationships, and calculated fields into a business-ready dataset.

A model is the fundamental unit of modeling in NQRust Analytics. It combines a table's schema, metadata, relationships, calculated fields, and other semantic details so that both your team and the AI service can interpret the data accurately.

Create a model

During the connection process

When you connect a data source, you choose which tables to bring into NQRust Analytics. Each table you select becomes a model automatically.

From the Modeling page

Click the + icon next to the Models section in the sidebar.

Select a table from your data source.

Choose the columns to include, then click > to add them to the model.

Optionally, select the table's primary key.

Click Submit.

The create model dialog: selecting a source table and moving the chosen columns into the model.

Update model columns

To change a model's column configuration:

Click the ... icon on the model diagram.
Choose Update columns.

From there you can:

Update columns — add or remove columns on the model.
Update primary key — set or change the model's primary key.

Browse your models

The Models section of the sidebar lists every model on the Modeling page. Expand a model to see its columns. Click a model to focus the ER diagram on that model.

Delete a model

Click the ... icon on the model diagram.
