There are two ways of connection your queries with third-party tools:
JDBC driver with Java applications
ODATA protocol for the tool of your choice (lime MS Power BI, Tableau, etc).
How does it work?
SQL Cloud is a 100% JavaScript database. Therefore a browser page is always required to run it.
As it is an app for Jira, a user must be logged in to Jira to view the page and connect to it.
The SQL Cloud - Query Server page is displayed below:
The page displays the database connection status:
ENABLED Your server is open to be connected to.
DISCONNECTED This means that Server is enabled and waiting for a connection.
CONNECTING Query Server has received a connection request and is checking the remote user’s authentication
CONNECTED The remote user has been authenticated and the server is connected and listening to incoming user's queries
DISABLED Query server is disabled, so it will not be possible to connect to it in any way.
The limit to connect is 10 seconds. If the threshold is reached then a timeout exception will be raised.
The database username is the Jira instance name (same as in the URL).
The database password can be read from that page (click on the Edit password link). Initially, a random password is created, but User can change it or create a new random one automatically whether it is saved blank.
The database port does not matter. You can use any available on the local machine.
