Add database columns and change the database column length by using the Data Type explorer in Dev Studio and the Integration Designer in App Studio. By updating the Pega Platform database through Data Types, you can use the same functionality as by updating your database directly. Updating your database through data types gives Pega Cloud clients another option to manage their database.

  Add a database column to your internal database by editing the columns in the Data Type Records tab.

• Changing database column length by using the Integration Designer

  Edit the column length in a table in your internal database for properties that are associated with data objects.
