Connecting your database

Updated View as Markdown

A connected database is available to Indent across investigations, analyses, and coding tasks — not just one-off queries. See Querying and analyzing data for what you can ask.

Add a database

Add a database from Settings → Integrations. Choose the database type and enter its connection details. Databases are organization-scoped, so the connection is shared with your team. Use read-only credentials — Indent only needs to read data.

Give each database a clear name and a short description, so it’s easy to identify when selecting one in a session and Indent knows what it holds.

Supported databases

Indent supports PostgreSQL, BigQuery, and ClickHouse. Connection details differ by engine:

  • BigQuery — a service-account JSON key and a location (defaults to US).
  • PostgreSQL — host, port, database, user, and password, plus an SSL mode.
  • ClickHouse — host, port, database, user, and password, plus a protocol.
