Example: Steps to Create a New Connection in TOAD

This procedure illustrates how to create a new connection in TOAD.

To create a new connection:

  1. In TOAD for Oracle, click Session > New Connection.
  2. On the Edit Login Record dialog box, enter the following credentials:
    • Username
    • Password

    On the Select Direct tab:

    • Host (server)
    • Port (1521)
    • Service Name (database name)

    You will then be prompted for password.

    Note: These accounts are unique to each database. If you change your password in one, it will not change it in the others. They are also not tied to the Cloud AD Account.
  3. If your password expires, you will be prompted to change your password.
