# Database Connectors With Mito AI, you can get answers from your database without writing a single line of SQL. ### Initial Setup {% embed url="" %} You can connect your database from the **Settings** page, under the **Database** tab. The first time you connect, it may take a few seconds while Mito AI analyzes your tables and columns. ### Using Your Database in Chat In the chat task pane, you can ask questions about your database. Mito AI will usually detect and use the connected database automatically, even if you don’t mention it explicitly. That said, being specific—such as naming a table or column—often improves the accuracy of responses. Alternatively, you can use the **@** key to bring up the variable dropdown menu, where you can search for you database (using its alias), and explicitly reference the database. ### FAQs #### **What databases are supported?** Currently Mito AI supports: * Microsoft SQL Server * MySQL * Oracle * PostgreSQL * Snowflake * SQLite #### **Do you store my database credentials?** No. Your database credentials are stored locally on your machine. Mito AI references your credentials through a local config file when establishing a connection. Your credentials are never sent to our servers or stored remotely. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
