Unable to find Retool Hosted Database connection string to connect from 3rd party

I am having trouble finding the connection string for the Retool Database. The documentation links to a specific page (Retool Database quickstart | Retool Docs), which includes the following statement:

Retool Database for cloud-hosted organizations are connected to the internet and can be accessed using the provided connection string.

However, the "connection string" link simply redirects to the same page without providing any actual details on where to locate the connection string. I have thoroughly checked the settings of the Retool Hosted database but have not found any information. Could you provide guidance on where to find the connection string?

Hey @Edoardo_Polito,

You can find it in the top left corner menu within the database page. There is a dropdpwn and it will be next to "Usage".

You can see a similar thread here How to get Retool DB connection string

It may be the case that you also need this to be activated for your account

Hello @Edoardo_Polito as mentioned in the docs the amazing @MiguelOrtiz linked, if you are in one of the few orgs that does need this activated, let me know and I can do that!

The connection string should be right where Miguel mentioned!
