Link Database

You might already have a Database where you would like to store data or just want to use the data in our neat modelling tool. In Less it is easy to link your database (currently we support MySQL - if you need another technology reach out on and we will make sure to help you) . It requires 2 things:

  1. The Less platform needs access to your database

  2. A database user with access to read and write from the database.

Linking a Database:

  1. Go to “Database” tab and click on “Link Database”

  2. Add your database information and hit save.

  3. Don! You can now choose to save data to you newly linked database.
