Could anyone please help on it

Hi,

Please try and remove the postgres:// from the host field.

After removing postgres:// from the host field.

It should work with redshift (see here for an example: AWS Redshift using Postgres fails to connect)

What do you have in the host field? You should only need sever.redshift.amazonaws.com:5439 and then the user field should contain the username and the password field should contain the password.

Grafana builds the connection string from the fields.

Error:

sever.redshift… is just an example host url. What is your actual host url for your redshift cluster?
