Best Practices

  1. Create a new database user for Felt access. Felt does run queries on the db, although we keep these at a minimum. This insures easier audit for your IT team.

  2. Maintain only 1 connection per database source. Adding multiple connections to the same database will increase the query load on your database unnecessarily.

  3. In case you see an error with the connection

    Untitled

    1. If your connection details have not changed, try hitting refresh to retry the connection
    2. If you need to change the connection click on Fix or the settings (cog wheel) to make & save changes to the connection details.

  4. If your connection details are correct and you are still having issues, check the access logs for your database and send these in an email to [email protected].

Felt IPs

When Felt connects to your data source, the traffic will come from one of the following IP addresses:

44.223.226.142
3.226.194.1
3.225.225.123
34.214.220.83
18.198.72.109
13.210.88.232
18.135.40.92
15.156.153.120
35.167.192.127
34.231.46.212
54.202.111.199

Limiting database access to a specific set of IP addresses enhances security by allowing connections only from pre-approved addresses while blocking all other connections at the firewall level.
