    Make sure the SQL database you are trying to edit has an Auto Incremementing Identity field and that the connection account has permission to edit the database. Its pretty common for SQL databases to connect as ReadOnly unless you make sure the database is setup to allow editing through the connector.

    Thanks! Added Auto increment column in table and also there was an issue with Database datatype. Fixed them and working as expected.

    The table also must have a Primary Key.

    I have the same issue. I am unsable to fix it.

    THe SQL server allows remote connection.
    I also have an id column. with INT IDENTITY(1,1)

    However, that's still not working

    The Auto incrementing Identity key is the primary key.
