DataGrip 2024.3 Help

Database objects list in the database tree is not accurate

Introspection is the process during which the IDE retrieves information about a database. This information is used to show the objects in the Database Explorer, display their DDL, suggest them during completion, and in other features for coding assistance.

To profile the introspection and diagnose possible issues, DataGrip can generate three files that include information about the following:

  • dataSource.txt: the data source.

  • introspector.txt: a module that was used to load the metadata from the database.

  • model.xml: a part of the database model.

This information might be helpful when introspection works incorrectly. For example, when you see something outdated or do not see new objects.

Collect diagnostic info

  1. Right-click a data source and navigate to Diagnostics | Generate Introspector Diagnostic Files.

  2. DataGrip will generate three files with the introspector diagnostic info.
