I am studying for my third SQL certification on Coursera. It requires
downloading the "Connecting to Mode Analytics - Updated.pdf" (MODE:
https://mode.com/), which on page 5 provides the option to connect to a
database. I chose MySQL, but it is asking me to provide four pieces of
information that I have never been asked while working with MySQL
Workbench 8.0:
It is asking for:
(1) A username (Is this for MySQL Workbench?),
(2) A password (Is this for MySQL Workbench?),
(3) A "Custom Trusted SSL CA Certificate" (I'm not sure where to get this),
(4) To "Choose a file" (What kind of file is this?).
Does MySQL have a default username? I have never been asked for one.
If so, where can I find it?
-
Does anyone know what the "Custom Trusted SSL CA Certificate" refers to
and where I can obtain it or choose it from?
-
And does anyone know what file I need to choose for the "Choose a file"
option? What kind of file is it referring to?
-
I hope someone has gone through this environment setup and understands
what the MODE site is asking for. Any assistance would be much appreciated!
