Integration · PostgreSQL
Connect PostgreSQL through Outpost
Query an on-premise PostgreSQL database through an Outpost with an explicit read-only or read-write setup.
PostgreSQL can be registered as a service on the meinGPT Outpost and shared with selected assistants. The Outpost connects to the local database, while the database user and the chosen read-only or read-write mode determine what the assistant can do.
An administrator configures the PostgreSQL connection on the Outpost and shares the registered service in meinGPT. The assistant can inspect the available schema and execute permitted queries. A dedicated database role should enforce the intended tables, rows and operations.
- Source
- PostgreSQL
- Capability
- Inspect schemas and run approved SQL queries
- Connection
- Database credentials stored on the Outpost; database permissions define the effective scope
- Data residency
- The database and connection secret remain in the local network; query results travel through the Outpost connection
Source, permissions, and data residency are documented separately for each connector.
Typical workflows
- Ask business questions
- Inspect the schema
- Build controlled reports
What the integration makes possible
01
Ask business questions
Translate a clear question into a query and explain the returned rows.
02
Inspect the schema
Review tables and columns before constructing an analysis.
03
Build controlled reports
Aggregate approved data into a concise operational report.
Review the prompt and result openly
Show monthly order volume for 2026 and explain the largest change.
Result
Order volume peaked in June at 12,420 orders, 18 percent above May.
Does this connection fit your use case?
We clarify the source, permissions, and connection required for the concrete use case. If the existing integration fits, you can move straight to setup afterwards.
Security and operations
Keep credentials on the Outpost and use a dedicated database role with minimal grants. Prefer read-only, expose views instead of sensitive base tables and audit write-capable configurations separately.
Known limitations
- 01Private Beta. The database role, query limits and selected access mode determine the real boundary.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Read-only should be the default; read-write access must be selected explicitly and constrained by database permissions.
