Connections

SQL Server

Set up a SQL Server connection in the workspace for the database actions to use.

SQL Server

Connects a Microsoft SQL Server database to the workspace. The SQL Server database actions in your robots use this connection.

Fields

Connection string

Enter the full SQL Server connection string. It follows this shape:

Server=host,port;Database=database;User Id=user;Password=password;

Example:

Server=192.168.0.1,1433;Database=production;User Id=admin;Password=mypassword;
PartWhat it is
ServerThe server's IP address or name, followed by the port
DatabaseThe database's name
User IdThe database user's name
PasswordThat user's password
tip

The connection string usually comes from the database administrator, or from SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS).

Using it in the Designer

For a robot to use this connection, add the SQL Server - Connection action to the flow. In the action's settings, pick the connection saved in the workspace. Later SQL Server actions (query, insert, update and the rest) use it automatically.
