To connect to an instance, you need its endpoint (host and port), a username, and its password. You also need to know whether the instance uses TLS.

Find your connection details

  1. In the sidebar, open Deployments > Instances and select your instance.
  2. Open the Connectivity tab. The Endpoint card shows the endpoint as host:port. Select the copy icon to copy it.
  3. Open the Instance Details tab. Under Parameter, find the FalkorDB User (by default falkordb) and the FalkorDB Password. Select Show to see the password, or the copy icon to copy it. On paid tiers, this section also shows whether TLS is enabled.

Use the port shown on the endpoint. It’s often not the default 6379.
To use a different user, create one in the User Access tab.
The Connectivity tab appears only while the instance is running. Instances in a Private network have no public endpoint. Connect to them from inside your peered network. See Customer networks.

Open FalkorDB Browser

FalkorDB Browser is a web UI for running queries and exploring your graphs visually.
  1. Wait until the instance status is Running.
  2. On the instance page, or on the Instances list with the instance selected, select Connect.
  3. FalkorDB Browser opens in a new tab with the Host, Port, Username, and TLS Secured Connection setting filled in. Enter your Password and select Log in.

The FalkorDB Browser login page opened from Connect, with the host, port, and username filled in and the password empty
The Connect button is turned off for instances in a Private network, because the browser can’t reach them. To learn the Browser itself, see the FalkorDB Browser guide.

Connect with redis-cli

Replace <host>, <port>, and the password with the values from the console. Add --tls if the instance has TLS enabled.

Connect with a client library

Each example connects to a TLS-enabled instance. For an instance without TLS, including every Free instance, remove the TLS option (ssl=True or tls: true).
For other languages, see Client libraries.
Read the password from an environment variable or a secret manager. Don’t hardcode it in your code or commit it to source control.
