Please verify your Access role under 'Organization Settings'. If it's not present there, contact your admin for assistance.

Absolutely! Install the Bird connector for each table as required. After installation, view all the tables under 'Your Connectors'. Remember, each installation is unique to one table, so you must install it for each table individually.
