How do I connect Postgres?

Add the Postgres piece to a flow, then authenticate with Custom auth. Once connected, its 1 trigger and 7 actions are available anywhere in the builder.

What can I automate with Postgres?

"New Row" can start a flow that runs "Find Rows", and you can chain Postgres together with any of 770+ other apps and AI steps in between.

Can I self-host the Postgres integration?

Yes. Activepieces is fully self-hostable, so you can run the Postgres piece on your own infrastructure with your connections and your data staying in your environment.

Can my AI agent use Postgres as a tool?

Yes. Every piece you connect can be exposed over one Activepieces MCP server, so Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or any MCP client can call Postgres actions as tools.
