A database connection in the web application is a record of a governed database target: a name, an environment label such as Development or Production, optional metadata, and an identifier. It holds no JDBC URL and no credentials, and it never connects to anything. Connecting Liquibase to your database happens in your CLI configuration; this record exists so operations against that database can be attributed and reviewed.

The database connections dashboard

The dashboard lists every registered connection with its environment badge. New Connection opens the registration form, where you pick the database type and environment.

The database connection details page

Opening a connection shows its identifier, environment, associated projects, and the operations attributed to it. This is where drift detections for a database surface alongside its deployment history.

The Database Connections dashboard

The Database Connections dashboard lists all database connections registered in your the server account. For each connection, you can see its name, identifier, database type, environment, policy status, the date it was created, and when it was last used.

You can search for a connection using the Filter database connections search bar, and narrow the list using the Type and Environments dropdown filters. Toggle Show Archived to include archived connections in the list.

Connection fields

The Database Connection details page

Selecting a database connection from the Database Connections dashboard opens its detail page. This page gives you a complete view of the connection's configuration, properties, policy check status, drift detection status, and operation history.

At the top of the page you can see the connection name, its environment badge, and its identifier. From here you can also:

• Edit — update the connection's name, environment, and database type

• Clone — create a new connection based on this one

• Archive — remove the connection from the active list

• Generate Audit Report — export a report of operation activity for this connection

Note: Archiving a connection hides it from the projects and pipelines it belongs to, and from their connection counts, without removing it from them. Restore it and it reappears in each one, in its original place in every pipeline.
