Importing Connections

Zentro can import connection profiles from other database tools so you don't need to re-enter credentials you've already configured elsewhere.

Importing from DBeaver

Steps

1. In DBeaver, export your connections: File → Export → DBeaver connections (.xml format)
2. In Zentro, open Settings → Connections → Import
3. Select DBeaver as the source and choose the exported .xml file
4. Review the list of detected connections — each shows the name, driver type, and host
5. Select which connections to import and assign each a target project and environment
6. Click Import

What Gets Imported

Passwords are not included in DBeaver's export format. After importing, open each connection profile and enter the password.

Exporting Connections

To back up or share your connection configuration (without secrets), go to Settings → Connections → Export. This creates a file containing all connection profiles for the current project, excluding passwords.
