How to export data to Heroku PostgreSQL?

Export data to Heroku PostgreSQL


Zoho DataPrep allows you to export data to PostgreSQL, also known as Postgres, a cloud database. It is a free and open-source relational database management system.

To export data to Heroku PostgreSQL

1. Click the Export now option from the Export menu on the DataPrep Studio page. 



2. You can select Oracle Cloud from the Cloud databases category or search it in the search box.



Notes
Note: If you have already added a PostgreSQL connection earlier, you can simply select the existing connection under the Saved connections section and proceed with exporting.

3. If your data contains columns with personal data, you can choose to include or exclude some or all of them in the PII columns section. 

You can also apply the necessary security methods below to protect your data column:

A. Data masking  
Data masking hides original data with 'x' to protect personal information.

B. Data Tokenization 
Data tokenization replaces each distinct value in your data with a random value. Hence the output is statistically identical to the original data. 

C. None
You can select None if you do not want to use any security method.   



4. Click Next and select Heroku PostgreSQL in the Database service name dropdown.

5. Enter the Endpoint, Port, Database name, Username and Password to authenticate the database connection. 

6. You can also select the Use SSL checkbox if your database server has been setup to serve encrypted data through SSL.

7. Enter a unique name for your connection under Connection name and click Connect.
Notes
Note: The connection configuration will be saved for exporting data in the future. Credentials are securely encrypted and stored.
 


Notes
Note: If you face trouble connecting to your database, please make sure Zoho DataPrep's IP Addresses are whitelisted in your application to export data to cloud databases. Click here to know about Zoho DataPrep IP addresses.

8. Once you have successfully connected to your Heroku PostgreSQL account, you can choose how and where to export the data.

9. Choose Existing table if you want to export data to an existing table and select one from the list of tables available in the database.
 
10. If you select the Existing table option, there are two ways in which you can choose how to export the new rows from your dataset in DataPrep to the table in your database.
 
  1. If the new rows are to be added to the table, choose Append.
      
  1. If the newly added rows are to replace the existing rows, select Overwrite from the dropdown.
      

11. If you want to create a new table and export data, select the New table option, enter the Schema nameTable name and proceed to exporting. 

Notes
Note: Schema name is not a mandatory field.



12. Click Export

13. Once the export is complete you can choose to schedule the export by clicking the Schedule configuration> link below.
