**Important** deprecated: Outerbase was [acquired by Cloudflare](https://blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-acquires-outerbase-database-dx/) and will shut down on October 15, 2025. This guide is deprecated and will be removed in a future update.

Outerbase is an AI-powered interface for your database that allows you and your team to view, query, visualize, and edit your data using the power of AI. Outserbase supports both SQL and natural language. To learn more, see [What is Outerbase?](https://docs.outerbase.com/introduction/what-is-outerbase)

## Prerequisites

The setup described below assumes that you have a Neon account and project. If not, see [Sign up for a Neon account](https://neon.com/docs/get-started/signing-up). An Outerbase account is also required, but if you do not have one, you can set one up when adding the integration.

## Add the Outerbase integration

To add the Outerbase integration to your Neon project:

1. In the Neon Console, navigate to the **Integrations** page for your project.
2. Locate the **Outerbase** integration card and click **Add Outerbase**.
   
3. On the **Log in to Outerbase** dialog, login with your Outerbase account or create an account if you do not have one. You can also sign in with a Google account.
4. Step through the Outerbase onboarding pages by selecting from the provided options.
5. When you reach the **How would you like to get started** page, select the **Connect a database** option.
6. On the **Create a base** page, select **Neon** from the **Connect to your cloud provider** section of the page.
7. You are directed to an **Authorize Outerbase** dialog. Click **Authorize** to give Outerbase permission to access your Neon account.
8. You are directed to a **Connect to your Neon database** page. If you have more than one Neon project, select the project you want to connect to from the **Select a database** drop-down menu.
      **Note**: If you use Neon's [IP Allow](https://neon.com/docs/introduction/ip-allow) feature, be sure to copy the provided Outerbase IP addresses from this page and add them to your Neon IP allowlist. See [Configure IP Allow](https://neon.com/docs/manage/projects#configure-ip-allow) for instructions. IP Allow is a Neon [Business](https://neon.com/docs/introduction/plans#business) plan feature.
9. Select **Connect to Database**.
      **Important**: Wait for a moment for the connection to be established. The **Connect to Database** button will change to a **Go to base** button when the connection is available.
10. Click **Go to base** to finish the setup.

You are taken to Outerbase's **Get Started tour** where you are guided through the basics of working with Outerbase. For information about the tour, see [Get started with Outerbase](https://docs.outerbase.com/introduction/get-started).
