Beekeeper Studio 5.9.0

This is a big one. Snowflake support — which we've been teasing for a couple of releases — has finally landed, bringing our fully-featured driver count up another notch. SQL Server gets proper integrated (Windows/Kerberos) authentication, and there's a pile of everyday-workflow upgrades: paste copied data straight in as new rows, pick enum values from a dropdown, rename things inline in the sidebar, and move queries, folders, and connections around from a single dialog. On top of that there's a long tail of bug fixes, SSH and packaging improvements, and a security fix worth calling out.

Highlights

  • Snowflake support. Our long-awaited Snowflake driver is here. Connect with username/password, SSO via browser, or multi-factor auth (authenticator code or Duo push), with token caching where your account allows it. You get full schema browsing, views and materialized views, primary/foreign keys, index create/drop, create-script (DDL) retrieval, table cloning, and transactional inserts/updates/deletes — plus streaming and cancellation for big queries. The connection form takes your account ID, default database, and warehouse, and there's a read-only mode for locked-down environments.

  • SQL Server integrated (Windows/Kerberos) authentication. Connect to your SQL Server using either integrated Windows auth, or Kerberos. Kerberos authentication works across all three operating systems (although it sometimes requires system-wide libraries installed).

Notable Improvements

  • Paste data as new rows. Copy a block of data from anywhere and paste it into a table as new rows instead of overwriting the cells you've selected — the quick way to port a chunk of data between tables without setting up a full import. There's a dedicated keybinding, and backspace now clears a selected range as you'd expect.

  • Pick enum values from a dropdown. Enum columns now offer their valid values in a dropdown right in the table and result grids, so you don't have to remember or retype them. Works on PostgreSQL, CockroachDB, MySQL/MariaDB, DuckDB, and ClickHouse.

  • One move-to dialog for everything. The move-to modal now handles saved queries and (sub)folders as well as connections, so you can reorganize the whole sidebar from one consistent dialog instead of a scatter of context-menu entries.

  • Inline renaming in the sidebar. Rename queries, connections, and folders inline, right where they live.

  • Plugin keyboard shortcuts. Plugin menu items can now be bound to custom keyboard shortcuts via the config file.

  • New "unix timestamp" query magic. Convert a Unix timestamp (seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, or nanoseconds) to a readable date string, with timezone and ISO formatting options — e.g. columnname__format__unixtime__ms__utc.

  • Smarter SSH config handling. Previously-silent ~/.ssh/config problems now surface as non-blocking warning toasts on connect/test (unparseable config, bad ownership/permissions, or a missing IdentityFile in agent mode). SSH tunnels now skip entries with a missing IdentityFile, and Beekeeper uses ssh-config's native Match exec handling instead of stripping Match blocks by hand. A new [security] allowSshConfigMatchExec option (default true, matching ssh(1)) lets you disable execution of Match exec directives.

  • SSH tunneling for more engines. Fixed SSH tunneling for ClickHouse and Firebird, and added bastion/jump-host support for MongoDB (forcing directConnection so it actually works).

  • ClickHouse custom SSL certificates. ClickHouse connections now support custom SSL certificates for encrypted connections. Thanks @mastercactapus!

  • DynamoDB is now in beta. DynamoDB moves from planned to beta support, with a new connection guide covering IAM auth and local-endpoint configuration.

  • Sidebar remembers where you were. The last-open sidebar tab persists across restarts, and the default sidebar tab is configurable.

Happy summer everyone! Well here in Texas things are getting a little toasty, so thought we'd celebrate with an equally hot Beekeeper Studio release 🔥🔥.

Included: A brand new database driver, query edit history for workspaces, automatic driver downloads, better SSH config support, and a long tail of bug fixes, security hardening, and UI polish.

Highlights

  • Amazon DynamoDB support. Connect to DynamoDB and browse your tables, right inside Beekeeper Studio. Our 18th database engine.

  • Query Edit History. When connected to a cloud workspace, every change you make to your query now gets recorded, so you can compare versions and roll-back if desired.

  • Automatic driver downloads. Some database engines need heavy native drivers that we'd rather not ship with every build. There's now a framework that downloads the right driver dependency on demand, the first time you need it, instead of bloating the installer for everyone.

Lowlights

Day has been working hard on a Snowflake driver, it's almost done, but wasn't ready in time for this release like we expected.

Azmi has been working on multi-hop SSH support so you can connect to your database via 2+ different jump hosts. Again, it just missed our release cutoff.

Smaller Improvements
  • New upgrade panel and modal used consistently across the app, with an animated AI Shell upsell card so it's clearer what you get with a paid plan.
  • Bundled AI Shell upgraded to v3.1.0.
  • Empty connection folders now stay visible even when they don't contain any connections yet, so your structure doesn't disappear on you. Thanks @vaibhavvikas!
  • SSH config file resolution for host aliases — host entries from your ~/.ssh/config are now resolved when connecting.
  • Recent connections now use the saved connection's details rather than a stale snapshot.
  • Local workspace can always be selected on the connection screen, even when a cloud license check is in flight.
  • Quieter production logs, with renderer messages routed to renderer.log instead of the main log.
  • Improved idle detection that combines system-level and in-app input tracking for more accurate auto-disconnect.
Bug Fixes
  • MongoDB: added the aws4 dependency to fix MONGODB-AWS authentication. Thanks @jim-fn!
  • Cassandra: UUIDs inside set and map collections are now converted to strings instead of rendering as objects. Thanks @andreasarf!
  • Table View: tables show a loading spinner instead of a misleading "No Data" message while results are still being fetched. Thanks @NianJiuZst!
  • Query streaming: fixed a bug that could break streamed result sets.
  • Named query params are no longer clobbered when the same parameter appears more than once across several queries.
  • Autocomplete now suggests columns for quoted table names and for tables used in joins.
  • Saved queries keep their folder and position when saved from a query tab. Fixes the case where saving would bounce a query back to the root.
  • Export progress no longer shows NaN or percentages over 100%.
  • Modals with a lot of content now scroll properly instead of overflowing.
  • Schema builder header is now sticky so column controls stay in view while you scroll.
  • Bastion / jump host background and padding render correctly under the system dark theme.
  • Plugin menus now share the same styling as the rest of the app's menus.
  • File picker only shows the pointer cursor when it's actually editable.
  • Page navigation no longer fires when focus is inside an editable element.
  • Cassandra rename and DuckDB column-type quoting: fixed two silent bugs in the SQL change builders.
  • Trial licenses: corrected the support-date expiration condition so valid trials aren't rejected.
  • Write-action shortcuts, checkbox context menu, and a spurious "remote change" notification are all fixed.
  • Identifier handling updated, with an integration test covering identifier updates.
Security
  • Shell execution hardening: added exploit tests for shell execution paths to guard against remote code execution.
  • SQL injection: fixed injection vulnerabilities in buildDatabaseFilter.
  • Dependency bumps to clear a batch of advisories: follow-redirects, @xmldom/xmldom, ws, js-cookie, uuid, protobufjs (and protobufjs/utf8), @babel/plugin-transform-modules-systemjs, plus a yarn.lock refresh to clear undici, flatted, and other transitive alerts.
Under the Hood
  • Database test coverage expanded significantly across the common driver interface, plus new earthdistance operator formatting tests.
  • CI: trimmed the e2e PR trigger and added concurrency, cached Playwright browsers and e2e deps, and bumped some old checkout actions.
  • Linting: yarn lint now actually lints, and a pile of ESLint rule violations and code-quality issues were cleaned up.
  • BaseModal wrapper component introduced to standardize modal behaviour.
  • Backup and SSH tests fixed.
Thank You to Our Contributors!
