Database Connectors

CanvaDB connects directly to your databases to pull live schema — no data ever leaves your database unless you explicitly run a migration. Credentials are AES-256-GCM encrypted before storage.

Document database. Connects via the MongoDB Node.js driver — pulls collections and schema structure from your Atlas cluster or self-hosted instance.

Relational database. Uses the pg client to introspect information_schema, pull table and column metadata, and execute live queries.

MySQL Live
