How do I connect Spotfire to my Azure MySQL database?

I get an error when I try to connect to the normal Microsoft Azure. I'm running Spotfire version 7.7

Here is some information for you to refer.

I am not sure Spotfire supports to connect Azure Database for MySQL(because there is a Other.. option), refer to the screenshot.

enter image description here

Besides, if it supports to connect Azure Database for MySQL, you could refer to this link to do it, it may be similar.

Note: You could find TIBCO Spotfire says in the link I mentioned:

The Microsoft SQL Server connector comes with Spotfire and as of Spotfire 7.8 supports use with Azure SQL.

Due to you are running Spotfire version 7.7, it may also be a reason for your connection error.

Even though it's an Azure MySQL Database, you can use the Oracle connector/driver.

All Sptfire drivers: https://community.tibco.com/wiki/tibco-spotfire-database-drivers

Oracle MySQL driver: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/

Once downloaded, restart Spotfire and then connect using Oracle MySQL with your Azure MySQL credentials.

Did you add your public IP address to AZURE firewall?
