I wrote a guide on connecting Hasura + Forest admin for no-code SaaS apps + admin backends:
"14. Connect Forest Admin to Hasura & Postgres"

For Heroku specifically you need to make sure that the client attempting to connect does it over SSL, so set SSL mode if possible (many clients will do this by-default).
To get the connection string for pasting into Forest Admin config, run this:
heroku config | grep HEROKU_POSTGRESQL
That should give you a connection string you can copy + paste to access externally from Heroku:
HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_YELLOW_URL: postgres://user3123:passkja83kd8@ec2-117-21-174-214.compute-1.amazonaws.com:6212/db982398

- iameoghan 6y agoAwesome, will definitely. I think it was your post in a different thread earlier this year where I came across it originally. I remembered the name as you helped me on the Hasura Discord (Thank you for all your awesome input there) & it looks so promising.
- seyz 6y agoThank you very much for this article, that's awesome!
- gavinray 6y agoOh snap, the founder of Forest Admin! Glad you liked the post, I've been using Forest on both realworld SaaS platforms and small side-startups since early 2017. Really cool to watch how much you've evolved since then. Also, Louis S. is amazing! I've sent two emails to you guys over the years, Louis answered both of them within a day. Throwback to 2017 UI ;) https://i.imgur.com/KT9Wtlx.png https://i.imgur.com/KT9Wtlx.png
- seyz 6y agoThis comment is epic, thank you very much :-) I'm sure Louis will be super happy to read this as well. See you soon!
