How do I add a data source?

Dashibase currently supports adding any PostgreSQL database as a data source.

To connect a database:

  1. Click on Data Sources in the sidebar.
  2. Click on Connect data source on the top right of the screen.
  3. Under General, enter a name for your data source.
  4. Under Postgres Credentials, enter your database credentials:
    • Host
    • Database name
    • Port
    • Username
    • Password
  5. Click on Set access.

Note: Certain database providers (e.g. AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) block incoming connections by default. If you're using one of these providers, you'll need to whitelist our IP addresses:

  • 52.201.72.191/32
  • 13.215.132.195/32
  • 65.2.134.15/32
  • 3.126.150.99/32

Please refer to the following articles for instructions on the whitelisting process:

  5. The Connection string is in the form postgres://[Username]:[Password]@[Host]:[Port]/[Database Name]. For example, the connection string above corresponds to:
    • Host: blue-smoke-925636.cloud.neon.tech
    • Database name: main
    • Port: 5432
    • Username: dashibase
    • Password: MyCoolPassword

Note: If it is not your first time opening the dashboard, the connection string will not display the password. If you forgot the associated password, you can either create a new user or reset the password.
