💡 This is a step by step guide to integrate PostgreSQL and Querio.

1) Create a dedicated PostgreSQL user

What: A non-human account used only by Querio, with least-privilege access.

How (run as a superuser or a role with CREATEROLE):

Execute the following SQL against the DB

-- Replace 'querio_user' and 'STRONG_PASSWORD' as needed
CREATE USER querio_user WITH PASSWORD 'STRONG_PASSWORD'

Tip: Use a long, random password (at least 16 characters) — a password manager can generate one.

2) Grant read-only access to the required database/schema

What: Limit Querio’s access to only the data it needs.

How (example for my_database and public schema):

Execute the following SQL against the DB

-- Database access
GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE my_database TO querio_user;

-- Schema access
GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA public TO querio_user;

-- Table access
GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public TO querio_user;

-- Future-proof: auto-grant SELECT on new tables
ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES IN SCHEMA public
GRANT SELECT ON TABLES TO

Adjust the schema name if your data is not in public. Repeat grants for each schema Querio needs to query.

3) Collect and share the connection string

What: This is the standard PostgreSQL URI format Querio will use to connect.

postgresql://<username>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<database></database></port></host></password></username>

How to find each value:

  • username: querio_user (or whatever you created)

  • password: The one you set in CREATE USER

  • host: Your PostgreSQL server’s hostname or IP address

  • port: Usually 5432 unless configured otherwise

  • database: The database Querio should query
