Datasource & Profile

Warning
The following workflow only applies to Joget DX 9.0.x and below. If you are on Joget DX 9.1 or higher, this page is read-only.

To change the profile or datasource settings in Joget DX 9.1 or higher, edit the app_datasource.properties or app_datasource-<profile_name>.properties files respectively in the wflow directory.

Introduction

Datasource & Profile Settings management makes it easy for you to switch between different profiles that hold individual database settings. Only one active profile is allowed at any time. Joget is backed by Hibernate, which enables it to connect to major RDBMS (Relational Database Management Systems). Out of the box, the Joget installer comes embedded with MySQL DBMS, but it may be connected to other RDBMS easily, such as Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, and PostgreSQL.

Datasource properties

To set up Datasource & Profile properties in Joget DX 9.0.x or below, go to Settings > System SettingsDatasource & Profile Settings.

Fields to configure:

  • Select Profile: Profile selection for saved database profile.
  • Driver Name: Database driver class path required for JDBC connectivity.
  • URL: JDBC connection string specifying the database location and details.
  • User: Database username for authentication.
  • Password: Database password associated with the provided username.

Supported Databases

  • By default, Joget is preloaded with MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and Microsoft SQL Server JDBC drivers. You may add to other libraries as needed.
  • The Datasource & Profile properties are not available if you are on Joget Cloud.
