Dashboard Improvement: Add more descriptive/transparent messaging to "schema" tab
The "schema" tab does not have useful messages or instructions to make it clear that we need to select specific tables to include them in the sync. It would be helpful to have a message at the top to instruct the user to check off each table that they want synced, particularly for users new to Fivetran.
Additionally, tables that are unable to be synced due to inadequate permissions are merely grayed-out, and a message only appears when hovering over the check-boxes. Another message (displayed at the top or somewhere highly visible) to indicate that Fivetran has no read-access to the grayed-out tables would make this immediately apparent. Alternatively, there could be a separate column to indicate the level of access that has been granted to Fivetran for each table.

Hi Tim, thank you for the feedback!
We are actually looking at the usability of the schema tab right now, so this is timely. We are actually going to be doing some user research in this space, so if you are interested in being a part of that, please let me know.
Otherwise, I completely agree with the points you have made, and it is something that we will be fixing in the near future.
Thanks,
Lyndsey
