Advanced Setup

Adding Pinot Database

In order to add Pinot cluster as a database, a SQLAlchemy URI is required.

The format of URI is:

pinot://<pinot-broker-host>:<pinot-broker-port><pinot-broker-path>?controller=<pinot-controller-host>:<pinot-controller-port>

E.g.

pinot://pinot-broker:8099/query/sql?controller=http://pinot-controller:9000/

Below is an example for the QuickStart cluster, you can click TEST CONNECTION button to check if Pinot cluster is successfully connected.
