Network Configuration

Most database connectors require whitelisting TextQL’s IP addresses in your firewall or security group settings. See the Network Configuration Guide for detailed instructions for:
  • AWS (RDS, Aurora, Redshift)
  • Azure (Synapse, SQL Database, PostgreSQL)
  • Google Cloud (BigQuery, Cloud SQL)
  • Databricks
  • Other providers
VPC and Private Deployments: IP whitelisting does not apply to VPC, on-premises, or single-tenant deployments. Contact your TextQL representative for custom deployment network requirements.
