MySQL

Connect your MySQL or MariaDB database to CipherSense Agents workflows

MySQL is the world's most popular open-source relational database. CipherSense Agents connects via standard credentials, letting your workflows run SQL queries and retrieve structured data as input context for Agent nodes. Compatible with AWS RDS for MySQL, Google Cloud SQL, PlanetScale, and self-hosted instances.
