&lt;p&gt;Lets say you are trying to upload the data in mariaDB, then you would need to pass &amp;quot;jdbc/Appian&amp;quot;. If you have created a connection to other DB using connected system, then this value needs to be the name of that connected system. If the connection has been done using admin console then it would be name you have&amp;nbsp;given there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this helps.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How to make DB connection url string as Text</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/140592?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 13 Sep 2024 20:45:37 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:c715f6af-9e6b-45fd-b455-86b9fb9d0aef</guid><dc:creator>vinaykumar</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/members/shababh0001"&gt;Shabab Hassan&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It would be the data source name or resource name similar to &amp;quot;&lt;strong&gt;jdbc/Appian&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;quot; -&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/24.3/Configuring_Relational_Databases.html"&gt;Configuring Relational Databases - Appian 24.3&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As you mentioned, create a text constant for the&amp;nbsp;same and use it in the data source input.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
