External Connect

External Connect allows you to link Endora with your existing databases or data sources, enabling you to manage and generate APIs instantly — without having to migrate your data.

What Is External Connect?​

External Connect is a feature that lets you connect Endora directly to external databases such as PostgreSQL.
Once connected, Endora automatically detects your existing tables, columns, and relationships turning them into API Endpoint that you can explore and extend within the platform.

How It Works​

  1. Open External Database
    Navigate to External Database in your Endora workspace.

  2. Connect
    Click on Connect Database button.

  3. Enter Connection Details
    Provide the necessary credentials such as:

    • Connection Name
    • Description
    • Host
    • Port
    • Database Name
    • Username
    • Password

  4. Test Connection
    Click Creation Connection to connect to your database.

Security Notes​

Endora uses encrypted connections (SSL) to ensure all external database communications are secure. Credentials are never exposed and are stored in compliance with modern data protection standards.
