Before you start
- A running database. The dashboard reaches it without a VPC or public access.
Tables (PostgreSQL, MySQL, ClickHouse)
1
Open Tables
Open the database and go to Tables. Pick the Schema (
public on PostgreSQL, defaultdb on MySQL, default on ClickHouse) and a table.2
Look and filter
Use Filter, Sort and Columns. Export CSV downloads what you see.
3
Change rows (PostgreSQL, MySQL)
Double-click a cell to change it, then click Save changes. Add row adds one; select rows to delete them. Tables without a primary key are read-only here; change them with SQL.
4
Create a table or load a CSV
New table creates one with columns and foreign keys. Import CSV loads up to 10 MB into a table; empty cells become
NULL.SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL, ClickHouse)
Go to SQL, write a statement and click Run (⌘↵).- A statement stops after 15 seconds. The first 1,000 rows are shown; Download CSV saves them.
- Explain shows the query plan.
- Statements that remove data ask you to confirm with Run anyway.
- Save keeps a query under Saved queries for everyone on the account (up to 100 per database).
Keys (Valkey)
Go to Keys, search with a pattern such asuser:*, and open a key to see its value, Set expiry or Delete key. Command console runs Valkey commands, read-only by default; commands that could harm the server (FLUSHALL, CONFIG, KEYS and others) are blocked.
Topics (Kafka)
Go to Topics to see each topic’s partitions, copies, messages kept, retention and readers with their lag. New topic creates one, and you can send a test message or delete a topic. Command line runsTOPICS, DESCRIBE, CONSUME and GROUPS; reading here never moves a consumer group.
