   You can specify your own drivers for the data source if you do not want to download the provided drivers. For more information about creating a database connection with your driver, see Add a user driver to an existing connection.

4. From the Connection type list, select a type of connection that you want to use:

   • Default: connect by using Host, Port, and Database.

   • IAM cluster/region: connect by using Database, Region, and Cluster.

   • URL only: connect by using the JDBC URL that you can copy in settings of your Amazon Redshift cluster.

5. From the Authentication list, select an authentication method.

   • pgpass: by using the PGPASS file. You can store this file in the user's home directory (for example, /Users/jetbrains/.pgpass). You can read more about the password file in The Password File at postgresql.org.

   • User & Password: by using your login and password.

   • AWS profile: by using a named profile. A named profile is a collection of settings and credentials that you can use for authentication. Named profiles are stored in CREDENTIALS files. Default directories for these files are ~/.aws/credentials (Linux and macOS) and %USERPROFILE%\.aws\credentials (Windows).

6. In your Redshift dashboard, create a Redshift cluster.

   For more information about the Amazon Redshift cluster, read Getting Started with Amazon Redshift.
