Genloop connects to MySQL over a direct database connection using a read-only user. It reads your schema and the tables you select, and never writes to your database.

​
Before you connect

  • A MySQL user with read access to the tables you want to query.
  • Network access from Genloop. If your database is behind a firewall, allow Genloop’s regional IP address. See Before you begin.

​
Connection fields

​
Connect through an SSH tunnel

If the database is not reachable directly, reach it through a bastion or jump host. Turn on Connect via SSH tunnel in the connection form and complete these fields.

​
Permissions

Genloop only reads your data and never writes to your database. You can connect with any user that already has read access to the tables you select. If you want a dedicated read-only user for Genloop, ask your database administrator to set one up.
Run this in your MySQL database:
