    Prefer to use database comment as dataset titleChoose whether to display the table name or the table comment. When enabled, the title is shown; when disabled, the table comment is shown
    URLThe JDBC URL of the database
    Transaction isolation level for read operationsThis setting only affects reading data; writing data still uses the default isolation level
    Hierarchical loading of schema and tablesDefault is Off. 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
    Only display tables under the specified database/schemaWhen this option is selected and the database field is not empty, only 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, click Execute Preset Code to pop up the preset code for this data source, then click the execute button.

  6. Click the Add button to add the Maxcompute PostgreSQL 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. In addition, when upgrading from a version prior to 4.4 to 4.4, you need to execute the preset code for existing data connections in the system.
