Deleting a connection

Before you delete a Connection, ensure that you carefully review any resources that reference the Connection. It is not possible to delete a Connection if it is references by a migration. You must delete the migration before deleting the associated Connections.

Deleting a Connection also deletes the private connection and database credentials, so it will no longer be accessible to migrations. After you delete a Connection, it cannot be restored.

Note

Connections also capture and synchronize database credentials to Database Migration. Any change made to the credential, such as updating or deleting, synchronizes to Database Migration. You will encounter issues when the Replicat or Extract attempts to reconnect to a deleted Connection.

To delete a Connection:
  1. In the list of databases on the Database connection details page, select Delete from the Actions (three dots) menu of the database you want to delete.
    You can also click Delete on the Database connection page.
  2. In the Delete dialog, click Delete.
