# Datasource Selection Wizard

## Overview

The **Datasource Selection Wizard** is used in multiple places to allow selecting the table where the data is coming from which can be a [Database Table](/reference/servoycore/object-model/database-server/table.md), a [Database View](/reference/servoycore/object-model/database-server/view.md), an [In-Memory Table](/reference/servoycore/object-model/solution/in-memory-data-source.md), or a [View Foundset](/reference/servoycore/dev-api/database-manager/viewfoundset.md).

Anywhere with a `datasource` property or where a table is needed as a source will have the option to launch this wizard, some examples are:

* [Forms](/reference/servoycore/dev-api/solutionmodel/jsform.md), to indicate the table that will be shown in the form
* [Relations](/reference/servoycore/dev-api/solutionmodel/jsrelation.md), to indicate the Source and Destination tables related together
* [Data Grid](/reference/servoyextensions/ui-components/grids/data-grid.md), to indicate what table will be displayed in the grid when a separate Foundset is used
* [Valuelists](/reference/servoycore/dev-api/solutionmodel/jsvaluelist.md), to indicate where the underlying values will be taken from when the type is `Table Values`

## Sections

### Filter

This is the text box at the top of the wizard, it allows searching any table name in the multiple databases shown, In-Memory table, or View Foundset.

### Available Tables

It shows the list of tables available to use grouped by database. In-Memory and View Foundset tables are in their own group as well.
