Important

New database features are no longer connected to engine versions; features are now enabled independently during scheduled update windows, and “major” and “minor” releases no longer exist in Helios. Please visit the release notes to view the latest features available in your database clusters.

SHOW CREATE LINK

Syntax

SQL

SHOW CREATE LINK <link_name>

Argument

Remarks

The SHOW CREATE LINK command does not support links to the HTTP sources (CREATE LINK ... AS HTTP).
Password and other sensitive information is masked in the SHOW CREATE LINK output.
Refer to Permissions Matrix for the permissions required to run this command.

Example

The following example shows that sensitive information is hidden from the output:

SQL

CREATE LINK pLink AS MYSQL
CONFIG '{
  "database.hostname": "svchost",
  "database.exclude.list": "dbTest",
  "database.port": 3306,
  "database.ssl.mode":"required"}'
CREDENTIALS '{
  "database.password": "pa55w0rd",
  "database.user": "s2user"}';

SHOW CREATE LINK pLink \G

  Link Name: pLink
Create Link: CREATE LINK `pLink` AS MYSQL
CONFIG "{\n  \"database.hostname\": \"svchost\", \n
\"database.exclude.list\": \"dbTest\", \n
\"database.port\": 3306, \n
\"database.ssl.mode\":\"required\"}"
CREDENTIALS <CREDENTIALS REDACTED>
