# Editing Database Connections

For each PostgreSQL database, you can modify the configuration settings specified while adding the database connection:

1. Switch to the **Configuration** page.
2. Navigate to **Salesforce** > **Databases**.
3. Select the necessary database from the list and click **Edit Connection**.
4. In the **Edit Database Connection** window, you can change the connection label used as the database name displayed in the Veeam Backup for Salesforce Web UI, the server address, the network port and the database user. If you change credentials of the user, keep in mind that the new user must be assigned permissions required to create database schemas. For more information on the required permissions, see [Permissions](permissions.md).

::: note

You cannot edit connection settings for the Veeam Backup for Salesforce configuration database, but you can change user credentials used to connect to this database. To do that, click **Configuration Database** and provide new credentials in the **Edit Database Connection** window.
