CONNECTIONS
MySQL connections with SSH tunnel
Save named MySQL connections on your machine. Add SSH when your network needs it. Color tags keep prod and staging apart.
What to save on a daily MySQL connection
Host, port, user, and password—plus options that matter in real teams.
- Named connections you can reopen fast
- SSH tunnel with password or private key
- Test connection before you save and forget
- Refresh the database list when schemas change
When you need an SSH tunnel for MySQL
Many staging and production hosts are reachable only through a bastion. Configure the tunnel once on the named connection instead of opening a separate terminal every morning.
Keep credentials local-first
Connection secrets stay on your machine by default. Recreate connections when you switch machines—there is no cloud sync of passwords to maintain.
