Overview
Phinite’s MySQL predefined tool lets workspace assistants call MySQL APIs through DevStudio after you save a connection under Integrations → Predefined tools. Execute queries, manage tables and schema, and perform CRUD operations on a MySQL database via async connection.Predefined tools require a saved connection before they appear in Graph Studio’s tool picker. See Predefined Tools in GraphStudio.
