Developer Tools & IT
What the PostgreSQL connector can do
A PostgreSQL connection gives type.com read-only access to a real database, so Claude can answer data questions instead of a team member writing and running SQL by hand. The agent can inspect the schema first to ground its query in the actual table structure, then run a parameterized SELECT and render the results as a table directly in the thread.
One connection, many Spaces
Connect PostgreSQL once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.
What teams do with PostgreSQL in type.com
Answer a one-off data question
Ask for a number straight from production, like active accounts this month, without writing SQL or waiting on a dashboard.
How many accounts signed up in the last 7 days? Check the database.
Explore an unfamiliar schema
Have Claude list the tables and columns in a database before writing a more complex query, so nobody guesses at field names.
Show me the tables and columns in the orders schema before we query it.
Share query results with the team
Get a query's output rendered as a table right in the thread, so teammates can review the same numbers without re-running anything.
Run a query for top 10 customers by revenue and show it as a table.
Representative actions
- Run read-only SQL queries
Executes a parameterized SELECT statement against the connected database and returns the resulting rows.
- Inspect schema and tables
Lists schemas, tables, columns, and data types so queries can be grounded in the real structure.
- Surface query results inline
Formats query output as a structured table block directly in the type.com thread.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting PostgreSQL
Can Claude query my PostgreSQL database from type.com?
Yes. Once a PostgreSQL connection is shared with a Space, Claude can inspect the schema and run read-only SELECT queries in a thread, with results shown as a table.
How does type.com authenticate with PostgreSQL?
The connection is set up once with database credentials by an admin, who then chooses which Spaces can use it. Credentials are never pasted into a prompt.
Can recurring database checks run automatically?
Yes. A type.com automation can run the same read-only query on a schedule, for example a daily signup count, and post the result to a channel.
Is this the same as a PostgreSQL MCP server?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
