Connecting

Step 1: Create a New Connection in DBeaver

1. Open DBeaver.
2. Click File > New > Database Connection or press Ctrl + N.
3. In the Select Database window, choose MySQL, then click Next.
4. Enter your database connection details:
   • Host: Your database’s hostname or IP address.
   • Port: 3306 (or the custom port if specified).
   • Database: The name of your MySQL database.
   • Username: Your database username.
   • Password: Your database password.
5. Click Test Connection to ensure everything is correct. If successful, proceed to the next step.

Step 2: Save and Connect

• Click Finish to save the connection.
• In the Database Navigator, locate your new connection and expand it to access tables, schemas, and other database objects.

Additional Notes

• If you experience connection issues, verify that your database host allows external connections. Some providers require you to whitelist your IP address.
• Ensure that your firewall or security groups do not block MySQL’s default port (3306).
