Field
Type
Description
Host
Required
The IP address or hostname (db.example.com) of where your database instance resides. Note, localhost and 127.0.0.1 are not valid!
Port

Enter into this field "1433"
Database
Required
The name of the database you would like to interact with.
Username
Required
We recommend creating a new database user with extremely limited access. Try both a plain username and a fully qualified Windows username with domain name like example.org//username.
Password

Again, this should not be your production password. Make it strong! (We like using random.org.)

The schema that the selected database resides in.
