Create an Apache Cassandra data source with SSL
In the Database tool window ( ) , click
New and select Connect to Database.If you have a connection string for the database defined in your solution or elsewhere, leave the Use connection string option selected and choose Apache Cassandra in the Database type selector.
Use the String selector to choose the desired connection string from your solution or type it in manually, then click Connect.
You can also choose Add data source manually, click Next and select Apache Cassandra in the Database source selector. Follow the wizard steps to form the connection string by configuring individual options.
To access all available options for the new database connection, click
in the Database window, then click New and select Apache Cassandra.Check if there is a Download missing driver files link at the bottom of the connection settings area. Click this link to download drivers that are required to interact with a database. For a direct download link, refer to the JetBrains JDBC drivers page.
Location for the downloaded JDBC drivers is the JetBrains Rider configuration directory.
You can also use your drivers for the database instead of the provided ones. For more information about connecting to a database with your driver, refer to Add a user driver to an existing connection.
If there is no Download missing driver files link, then you already have the required drivers.
In Host, Keyspace, User, Password, and Port fields, specify connection details.
Open data source properties. You can open data source properties by using one of the following options:
In the Database tool window ( ) , click the Data Source Properties icon

-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=<path_to_client_truststore> -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=<truststore_password>Client authentication: the server verifies the client that tries to connect to the server.
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=<path_to_client_keystore> -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=<keystore_password>
tip
For more information about JSSE system properties, refer to the Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) Reference Guide.
Add the
sslenabled=trueoption to the JDBC URL. For example, jdbc:cassandra:/ ./localhost:9042 /?sslenabled=true Ensure that the connection to the database can be established using the provided details. To do that, click the Test Connection link at the bottom of the connection details area.
In case of any connection issues, refer to the Cannot connect to a database page.
(Optional) By default, only the default keyspace is introspected and available to work with. If you also want to work with other keyspaces, in the Schemas tab, select them for the introspection.
Click OK to create the data source.
Find your new data source in the Database tool window () .
For more information about the Database tool window, see the corresponding reference topic.
