Connecting to GaussDB

Connection Steps

Please follow the steps below to connect to the GaussDB data source.

1. Click "New Data Connection" in the upper right corner of the data connection page.

2. Select the GaussDB data source from the list of data source types.

3. Fill in the required parameters for the data source connection as prompted.

   Connection Configuration Information Description

   Field	Description
   Name	The name of the connection. Required and unique within the user.
   Host Address	The address of the database. If the URL field is filled in, the value in the URL will take precedence.
   Port	The port of the database. If the URL field is filled in, the value in the URL will take precedence.
   Username	The username for the database.
   Password	The password for the database.
   Database	The name of the database.
   Schema	The schema of the database.
   Max Connections	The maximum number of connections in the connection pool.
   Encoding	The encoding setting for the database connection.
   ssl	Whether to use ssl connection.
   sslmode	Fill in according to GaussDB configuration, such as "disable", "allow", "prefer", "require", "verify-ca", "verify-full"
   Logical Decoding Output Plugin	Only required when used as a streaming sync data source. Fill in the logical replication plugin name as configured.
   Prefer to use database comment as dataset title	Whether to display the table name or the table comment as the title. When enabled, the title is displayed; when disabled, the table comment is displayed.
   URL	The JDBC URL of the database.
   Transaction Isolation Level for Read	The transaction isolation level for read operations. This setting only affects reading data; writing still uses the default isolation level.
   Hierarchical loading of schema and tables	Disabled by default. When enabled, schemas and tables are loaded hierarchically. Only schemas are loaded during connection; you need to click the schema to load the tables under it.
   Query Timeout (seconds)	Default is 600. When the data volume is large, you can appropriately increase the timeout.
   Allow Write Operations	Indicates that this connection can be selected as an output connection in Data Integration and Batch Sync. You must have write permissions to the database and pass verification before configuring this parameter.
   Support uploading files to specified path	Indicates the database name where the generated table will be stored when creating a local file dataset. You must have write permissions to the database and pass verification before configuring this parameter.
   Only display tables under specified database/schema	When this option is selected and the database field is not empty, only the tables under that database will be displayed.

4. After filling in the parameters, click the Validate button to get the validation result (this checks the connectivity between HENGSHI SENSE and the configured data connection; you cannot add the connection if validation fails).

5. After validation passes, Allow Write Operations and Support uploading files to specified path will change from disabled to enabled, and you can choose whether to enable these options.

6. Click Execute Preset Code to pop up the preset code corresponding to this data source, then click the execute button.

7. Click the Add button to add the GaussDB connection.

Please note

1. Parameters marked with * are required; others are optional.
2. You must execute the preset code when connecting to the data source. Failure to do so may result in certain functions being unavailable during data analysis.
