Connection

Note

This feature is at the Preview stage.

With Yandex Connection Manager, you can manage database connection parameters. Connections are created automatically when you create a new managed database cluster in Yandex Cloud, if support for Yandex Connection Manager is configured at cloud level. To configure the integration, contact support.
You cannot edit or delete any connection or secret created automatically together with a new cluster: they are updated automatically when editing user settings in a managed database cluster.

A connection contains the whole information about database connection parameters. The sensitive part of this information, such as the user password for database access, is stored in Yandex Lockbox as a secret.

You can also create new connections with secure storage of custom database installation passwords and use them in Yandex Cloud services available to you.

Tip

When creating a connection to a custom database installation intended for Yandex DataLens, specify the host's external address.

You can configure access to connections using Yandex Connection Manager roles. You can assign roles for a cloud, folder, or separate connection. They will also apply to nested resources.
