Connect to MySQL in minutes

Retool comes with a native integration to connect directly to your MySQL database (via a connection string or regular credentials) and lets you run raw SQL (or issue commands via a GUI) to manage the data in your MySQL tables. For example, you can render users from MySQL into a Table component and add a button that, when clicked, runs an SQL query and marks that user as approved.

Build apps on top of your MySQL database

Retool gives you a drag-and-drop interface to build internal apps on top of MySQL and perform the actions you need without doing anything destructive. No need to worry about errant DROP DATABASE commands getting you paged late at night.
