Database connection instructions

Apr 16, 2021

Connecting to a database can be difficult, involving trusted sources, credentials, certificates, and more, depending on your setup. We've added inline instructions and videos on how to find some of this information while connecting a data source in BaseDash.

Specifically, we now show text and video instructions on:

  • Finding your database credentials

  • Adding BaseDash as a trusted source to your hosting provider

  • Connecting to a locally hosted database

We currently have videos for all major managed database hosting providers with plans to add more in the future.
