    1. 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).
    2. After validation passes, the Allow Write Operations and Support uploading files to specified path options will be enabled. You can choose whether to enable these two options.
    3. Click Execute Preset Code to pop up the preset code for this data source, then click the execute button.
    4. Click the Add button to add the Alibaba Hologres connection.
