Connect your data

A connector lets a dashboard query a live database or warehouse using credentials you provide. Configure connectors in Settings → Connections → Data. Once a connector is connected, its tables and views appear in the dashboard’s catalog as sources, and SQL blocks query them like anything else in the dashboard. Connector credentials are encrypted at rest, and aren’t returned to the application once saved.

Provide a connection string of the form postgresql://user:password@host:5432/dbname (for Postgres). We support most flavors of SQL.

Use this for application databases and traditional analytical Postgres deployments.

Provide your account locator (org-account), role, user, password or token, warehouse, database, and schema. BitBoard authenticates per query; no persistent session is held open.

Provide the workspace host (https://dbc-...cloud.databricks.com), the HTTP path of a SQL warehouse (/sql/1.0/warehouses/...), and a personal access token. Queries route through the Databricks SQL endpoint.
