PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL database — SELECT 1 connectivity test.
OCNORA ships 1 typed PostgreSQL operation. Each node has a schema-driven form, input and output tables beside its settings, and is pre-flighted by Workflow Health before your first real run.
Before you connect PostgreSQL
- Authentication
- Username & password
- Credential
- the password, or {"password": "…"}
- Connection test
- Available: the stored credential can be checked against the provider when you add it. This is not a record that a test was run or passed.

Nodes that use your PostgreSQL connection
Beyond its own nodes, these generic nodes accept your PostgreSQL credential. Each chooses the provider from the connection you select, so the same node also works with the other providers shown.
- SQL Querydb.queryRun a parameterised SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE against a Postgres or MySQL connection.Also works withMySQL
- Vector: Create Collectionvector.create_collectionCreate a collection (index / class / table) sized for one embedding model.
- Vector: Deletevector.deleteDelete records from a vector store by id, by metadata filter, or all of them.
- Vector: Describe Collectionvector.describe_collectionRead one collection's width, metric and record count.
- Vector: List Collectionsvector.list_collectionsList the collections a vector store holds.
- Vector: Queryvector.queryFind the records nearest to a query text or vector, with metadata filtering.
- Vector: Upsertvector.upsertWrite documents and their vectors into a vector store, with metadata.
A sample PostgreSQL workflow
- 1A core triggerStart the run from a chat, form, manual, schedule, webhook, workflow trigger — no PostgreSQL trigger is needed.
- 2Run Querypostgres.queryRun a parameterised SQL query against a PostgreSQL database.
An outline built from this provider’s node contracts, not a recorded run. Each step’s output fields are available to the next in the field picker.
Every node below has a reference page: what it does, the connection it needs, its config fields with types, constraints and examples, and the shapes it emits.
Where PostgreSQL fits
PostgreSQL questions
- How does OCNORA authenticate with PostgreSQL?
- With a stored Username & password credential, shaped the password, or {"password": "…"}. A connection test can check it when you add it.
- What can I automate with PostgreSQL?
- 1 typed operation, each with a reference page listing its config fields and the shapes it emits. The credential also drives 7 generic nodes.
- What if the PostgreSQL operation I need is not listed?
- Where PostgreSQL has an HTTP API, call it from the HTTP node with the same credential, or describe the step to the AI builder, which asks our team for a typed node when one is missing.
- Are there templates that use PostgreSQL?
- Not yet. Start from a blank workflow, or describe the workflow to Build with AI.
- How are PostgreSQL calls controlled?
- Every call and every run step is audited, runs count against the execution budget, and Workflow Health pre-flights the workflow when you save it.
