See the database connector documentation.

You can import all data using:

treenode dbc=Model.find("/Tools/DatabaseConnectors/DBConnector1");
function_s(dbc, "importAll");

or a single import (the example show that at rank 2) using:

treenode dbc=Model.find("/Tools/DatabaseConnectors/DBConnector1");
treenode importer=dbc.find(">variables/importers/2");
function_s(dbc, "importSingle",importer);

You can add the above code where appropriate and will trigger. For example: ONPress properties of import button. This part is very detailed in the user manual.

OnPress

The OnPress event specifies code that will be executed when the button is pressed. It should have text data containing flexscript code. Within the code, c accesses the button view.

In addition, if you are the official version of 19.0 users, welcome to contact Beijing CSN for more technical Q & A and related support.
