Connect Your Database

Connections are the foundation for the rest of Dory. Explorer, SQL autocomplete, and AI grounding all depend on an active database connection.

Before you connect

  • Make sure the database host is reachable from your machine or deployment.
  • Prepare the hostname, port, database name, username, and password.
  • Decide whether you are connecting to production, staging, or a local environment.
  1. Open the connection dialog in Dory.
  2. Choose the database type.
  3. Fill in the credentials and network details.
  4. Test the connection before saving.
  5. Open Explorer to verify the schema is visible.

Supported drivers

See Database Support for the current support matrix and deployment notes.
