How to connect to database using cumulocity json, In java spring boot application

[jkpatil1010 (Jaya Kumar)]

Hi,

i want to connect postgres database in inorder to read some data, currently i am connecting to database using application.properties file.
But I need to connect to data base using cumulocity json file.

please provide me with the code or sample springboot project.

This does not make any sense for the following reasons:

1. the applications.properties is the properties file for the application
2. cumulocity.json is a manifest file only used by the platform and does not contain any properties used by the application

They are persisted on initial deployment in the Tenant Options.

You can read them there as well on startup:

Just to clarify some misassumption: You don’t need to connect to any database, you just need to access the API which is part of the SDK.
