# Queries in Yandex WebSQL

You can use [Yandex WebSQL](../../websql/index.md) to run Yandex Managed Service for Valkey™ cluster database operations.

WebSQL is a Yandex Cloud service that enables you to connect to managed database clusters, work with databases, tables, and schemas, and run queries. It is a web-based tool that requires no additional authorization and simplifies working with Valkey™ commands by prompting the user.

To connect to a cluster from WebSQL, you must enable the **WebSQL access** option in the cluster settings. You can enable this option when [creating](cluster-create.md) or [updating a cluster](update.md#change-additional-settings).

The Yandex Managed Service for Valkey™ cluster automatically creates a [Connection Manager](../../metadata-hub/concepts/connection-manager.md) connection for each database user, enabling database access from WebSQL. You can also [create a new connection](../../websql/operations/create-connection.md#connect-cluster) if you need one.

To connect to the database from WebSQL:

{% list tabs group=instructions %}

- Management console {#console}

  1. In the [management console](https://console.yandex.cloud), select the folder containing your cluster.
  1. Navigate to **Yandex Managed Service for Valkey™**.
  1. Click the cluster name and navigate to the **WebSQL** tab.
  1. Select the required connection.

      The connection will open in WebSQL. To open the query editor, select the required database.
    
{% endlist %}
