Connect a Data Source in the Data Studio

9 November 2026

  • The Data Studio opens on Data Sources. With the Right “Create Data Sources and Managed Databases”, you connect a database or data warehouse: PostgreSQL, Amazon Redshift, MySQL and MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server and Azure SQL, Snowflake, Google BigQuery, Databricks SQL or ClickHouse. See Connect a Data Source.
  • Paste the connection string as your database’s console or another tool shows it: a URL, a JDBC URL, or SQL Server’s ADO.NET string from the Azure portal. CockroachDB, Neon, Supabase and other databases that speak PostgreSQL’s or MySQL’s protocol connect too.
  • Test connection checks the connection string before you add it, and says in plain words why it fails. It warns you when the connection isn’t encrypted.
  • The dialog lists the addresses our queries come from, to allow on your firewall, and says that the agent can do whatever the database user may do.
  • The connection string is stored encrypted and is never shown again. Adding a Data Source is recorded in the Audit Log.
  • The agent doesn’t query Data Sources yet; that comes next.
