Then configure a connection to the SQL Cloud database with the following configuration:
Driver class: expert.marketplace.sqlc.jira.cloud.Driver
URL: jdbc:jira-cloud:<port> (any available local port)
Username: Must match the name of the Jira instance (https:<instance>.atlassian.net)

How it works
SQL Cloud is a 100% JavaScript database. Therefore a browser page is always required to run it.
As it is an app for Jira then the user must be logged in Jira to view the page and connect to.

The limit to connect is 10 seconds. If the threshold is reached then a timeout exception will be raised.
