Connecting to Your Datastore

While the tunnel is running, connect using your preferred client in a separate terminal:
The tunnel stays open until you press CTRL-C. Keep the terminal open while you need access to the datastore.
The connection credentials are displayed when the tunnel starts. Make sure to note the password if you need it for your client.
