Step-by-step walkthrough: How to connect PostgreSQL to Google Sheets
Launch Superjoin

Pick PostgreSQL
Select PostgreSQL from the list of available data sources.
Connect your PostgreSQL Database
Enter your connection credentials.
Avoid using local IP address (127.0.0.1) or private IP addresses like 192.168.1.100 (192.168.X.X). A private IP address for a server is like a private address of your device in a home or office network which can only be accessed from within the network and not from outside.
Typically, you can find these details in the configuration files of the application that interacts with your database, such as a config.php, .env, or other server-side configuration files. Alternatively, you may access these details from your database management system like phpMyAdmin or directly through PostgreSQL command line using the status command.
| Field | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Host | Enter the path to your database, which could be a URL or an IP address. | mydatabase.example.com |
| Port | Use the specific port for your PostgreSQL database. | Default is 5432 |
| Database | Specify the name of the database you want to query. | mydatabase |
| User | Enter the username for connecting to your PostgreSQL database. | admin or user123 |
| Password | Provide the password corresponding to the specified user. | password123 |
