PostgreSQL Integration
Last updated: August 27, 2026Connect PostgreSQL to the tools around it. Autonoly runs parameterised queries, reads and writes records, and moves results between Postgres and the rest of your stack — without a scheduled script somebody has to maintain. Transactions and bulk operations are supported for larger changes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about using PostgreSQL with Autonoly
Does it support transactions?
Yes. Multi-statement transactions are supported, so a set of writes either all apply or none do.
Can I connect to a managed Postgres like RDS or Supabase?
Yes. Any PostgreSQL instance reachable over the network works, including managed services, provided the credentials allow the connection.
How do I avoid SQL injection?
Use parameters for every value that varies rather than concatenating them into the query string. The query step is built to take parameters.
Can a query result trigger another step?
Yes. Rows returned by a query are available to later steps, so you can filter on them, branch, or send them to another app.
