Managing Data Connections

The Admin UI allows you to add, configure, and manage connections to your data sources.

  2. Select your data source type (Snowflake, BigQuery, PostgreSQL, etc.)
  3. Enter your connection credentials
  4. Test the connection to verify it works
  5. Save the connection

Connection Testing

Before saving a connection, Compass will:

  • Confirm read access to your data

Managing Existing Connections

From the Admin UI you can:

  • View all active connections
  • Edit connection settings
  • Test connection health

Dataset Management

Datasets are the specific tables or views from your connections that Compass can query.

Adding Datasets

  1. Select a connection from your list
  2. Browse available schemas and tables
  3. Select the tables you want Compass to access
  4. Compass will analyze the tables and recommend which ones are most useful

Syncing Datasets

  2. Click to remove it
