- Including TDSX and TWBX files
Getting connection information from data sources and workbooks
- Server Name
- Username
- Database Name

Updating connection information in workbooks and data sources
- Server Name
- Username
- Database Name
Getting Field information from data sources and workbooks
- Get all fields in a data source

We don't yet support creating files from scratch, adding extracts into workbooks or data sources, or updating field information
