Polaris database schema?

At my last library, the ILS contained a link to a SchemaSpy webpage for the database showing all of the tables and the relationships between them. It was really useful when I was still getting the hang of constructing queries.

Now I’m preparing to instruct staff at my current (Polaris, hosted) library as to how to construct SQL searches. I’m aware of the CHM files in the Database Repository - but most staff members at my library system don’t have access, and even if they did, a local file that you have to download, extract, and unblock is not the most user-friendly.

Has anyone else out there run into this issue? Were you able to find an alternative to sending the CHM directly to interested staff?

You can find a copy of those here: Polaris-Documentation-Repository/Polaris Database/Polaris Database Repository at main - Polaris-Documentation-Repository - Gitea

Yes, that’s what I ended up doing as well, but I hosted the file in SharePoint so our staff don’t get security warnings when they try to access it.
