How to export base and discover its structure We are with a small problem at work. Our DBA decided to go around the world on a journey of self-discovery. I really love the idea and wish the best for him. The only detail is that he left without leaving anything on the database that he created.

I already searched the site but couldn't find a concrete answer for my trouble or I wasn't searching the right way.

This means that we do not have the schemas, tables with data types for each field, triggers, connections with other tables and bases.
For this same problem I would like to know if it is possible to export from TOAD (the application I use to connect to the base and edit information BUT I can use another one if you tell me) in which you have the tables with names, the fields with the data types, schemas, triggers, connections between tables and other bases.

It's an Oracle Database.

I appreciate all the help you can give me, it's very important to us because we asked for a DBA but it will take long for the company to hire one.
You can generate an SQL file (of metadata) with built-in commandline tools (available on all database installations).

Just log in to the database server, create a full=y, content=metadata_only export:

expdp \'/ as sysdba\' full=y content=metadata_only


Then use impdp to generate an SQL file:

impdp \'/ as sysdba\' sqlfile=metadata.sql


Without specifying a location, Data Pump places its files by default in the directory DATA_PUMP_DIR, but expdp will display the full path of the file it created.
