Common questions about ClickHouse and Basedash

Which port does Basedash use for ClickHouse?

Basedash connects over ClickHouse's HTTP interface, not the native TCP protocol. Use port 8443 with SSL, which is the default and what ClickHouse Cloud uses, or 8123 without SSL. Turn on the SSL toggle when you connect over HTTPS.

What privileges does the Basedash ClickHouse user need?

SELECT on the databases or tables you want to analyze, plus SHOW on databases, SHOW TABLES, and SHOW COLUMNS so Basedash can read the schema. Create a dedicated user with only those grants, set query limits that fit your cluster, and rotate its credentials regularly.

Does Basedash work with ClickHouse Cloud?

Yes. Basedash connects to ClickHouse Cloud and to self-managed ClickHouse servers. For ClickHouse Cloud, use port 8443 with SSL on. If the connection fails, check the SSL setting, the user's privileges, and that the server accepts connections from Basedash.
