Modify connection profiles

After you create a connection profile in Datastream, you can modify its configuration to keep your source and destination connectivity up to date. You can update the connection settings, secret or password, encryption type, or connectivity method before using the profile to create a stream.

Modify a connection profile

1. Go to the Connection profiles page in the Google Cloud Console.

   Go to the Connection profiles page

2. Click the connection profile that you want to modify.

3. On the Connection profile details page, click EDIT.

4. Modify the connection settings, secret or password, encryption type, or connectivity method for the connection profile.

   If you're modifying a connection profile to a source, then test your modifications to ensure that Datastream can communicate with the source.

   When you do this, a dialog appears, prompting you for the secret or password of the account for the source. Datastream uses the username of the account that appears in the window and the secret or password that you supply to verify that Datastream can establish a connection to the source.

   For more information about the connection settings, connectivity method, or account for the source connection profile, see Create connection profiles.

5. After making your changes, click SAVE.

After creating and viewing high-level and detailed information about connection profiles for a source database and a destination, and making any necessary changes to the profiles, you can use them to create a stream.
