I've just installed the vscode extension (Oracle Developer Tools for VS Code (SQL and PLSQL)
) and successfully connected the db.

The db resides on AWS.

I can connect the db and just wanted to test it by opening an existing view.

But, it just lets me "describe" the view. So I can see the columns but I need to edit the query statement.

What's missing? Or is the problem the AWS part?

I usually use SQL Developer but I'm furthermore interested in backing up the work via git commits. And I like the way "git graph" extensions presents the changes.
