First, you must add a data source. For information, see Adding Datasources. Once the data source is created, follow the steps below to generate a data service using it.

1. Log in to the management console and select Generate under Data Service menu.
2. Select the data source created before and the database, which includes the data you need to expose, and click Next.
3. The table structure of the database s displayed. From there, select the preferred table/s and click Next.  
4. If you selected multiple tables in previous step, you must select a service generation mode from the two options as follows, and click Next.
   • Single Service: Creates a single data services for operations of all tables  
   • Multiple Services: Creates a services per each table for operations of only that table
