Connect Your First Data Source

Getting data into Skopx takes about two minutes. You can connect databases using a connection string, or hook up SaaS tools with a single OAuth click.

SaaS Tools (Slack, Gmail, GitHub, Jira, Notion, etc.)

  1. Open Settings > Data Sources in your Skopx dashboard.
  2. Browse the catalog or search for the tool you want.
  3. Click Connect and authorize Skopx through the OAuth popup.
  4. Once connected, the tool appears in your sources list with a green status badge.

That is it. Skopx indexes your data in the background and you can start asking questions immediately.

Databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Snowflake, BigQuery)

  1. Go to Settings > Data Sources and click Add Database.
  2. Choose your database type.
  3. Paste your connection string or fill in host, port, database, user, and password.
  4. Click Test Connection to verify everything works.
  5. Click Save. Skopx will scan your schema and you are ready to go.

Tips

  • For cloud databases, make sure Skopx's IP is allowlisted. You will see the IP on the connection screen.
  • Use a read-only database user for extra peace of mind.
  • You can connect multiple sources and query across them in a single question.

What happens next?

Once a source is connected, head over to the AI chat and try asking something. For example:

"How many new users signed up last week?"

Skopx figures out which source to query, builds the right query, and returns an answer with citations you can verify.
