Properties to configure to connect to a PostgreSQL database table.
PostgreSQL connection
Property |
Configuration |
|
---|---|---|
Selection | Select or enter PostgreSQL. | |
Configuration | ||
Engine | Select your engine in the list. | |
Main | If Define JDBC URL is disabled | If this option is disabled, enter each parameter that identifies the
database to be used in the corresponding fields. Click Load default values in order to help you pre-fill the fields with the default values associated with this type of database. Note: Use the host name of the target system
instead of 'localhost' in the URL as the Remote Engine Gen2 needs to be able to communicate
with the target system.
|
If Define JDBC URL is enabled | If this option is enabled, enter the JDBC URL that identifies the
PostgreSQL database. The expected format is the following: jdbc:postgresql://<host>[:<port>]/<database_name> Note: Use the host name of the target system
instead of 'localhost' in the URL as the Remote Engine Gen2 needs to be able to communicate
with the target system.

|
User name | Enter the user name used to connect to the Oracle database. | |
Password | Enter the password used to connect to the Oracle database. | |
Advanced | Force protocol | If Define JDBC URL is disabled, you can enable this option to define the JDBC driver protocol. |

|
|
Main | Query | Enter the SQL query to access the data of your choice located in your PostgreSQL table. |
Table name | Select or enter the unique name of your PostgreSQL table. | |
