Introduction
Qobra can connect to PostgreSQL by two means:- username / password credentials.
- service account (only available for Google Cloud Platform)
Setup via SQL user
- Create an account to setup the Qobra connection, ensuring the principle of least privilege. This means the account needs to have read only access, on table that need to be synchronized with Qobra. You’ll find Postgre’s documentation regarding User, role, & privilege commands here. Once your account is created, make sure you keep its username and password for later steps.
-
Whitelist Qobra’s IP:
13.39.2.144
-
You’ll then be able to fill in connection modal in app:
Username
: PostgreSQL account usernamePassword
: PostgreSQL account passwordHost
: PostgreSQL account’s unique URLPort
: by default 5432Database
: PostgresSQL database
Setup via service account
- Create a service account from your google account, it should look something like this:
-
You’ll then be able to fill in connection modal in app:
Username
: PostgreSQL account usernamePassword
: PostgreSQL account passwordService account
: PostgreSQL account’s unique URLInstance
: PostgresSQL instanceDatabase
: PostgresSQL database
Table requirements
To synchronize a file to Qobra, it must meet requirements:- the file contains a unique identifier column
- the file contains a name column
- the user values contained in the file must be emails by default, but it can be changed in app at table creation
Total synchronization
This integrations does total synchronization, meaning the whole document will be synced at every refresh.Refresh Schedule
By default, we perform four Full Refreshes per day to keep your data up to date. However, you can customize both the frequency and timing of these refreshes to better suit your needs:- Default Schedule: Four Full Refreshes per day
- Customizable Options:
- Adjust the number of daily refreshes
- Set specific hours for the refreshes to occur
- Configure the schedule through your integration settings
- On-Demand Updates: Need the latest data right away? Just click the refresh button in your integration settings

Custom querying
With this integration, you can apply a custom query to your table synchronization, to avoid synchronizing too much information, consequently making synchronization quicker. Custom queries are based on SQL where conditions. For instance, you could add as a custom queryStageName = 'Closed Won’
to filter your Opportunity object.
