# Switching to TablePro
> Move your connections from TablePlus, Sequel Ace, DBeaver, DataGrip, Beekeeper Studio or Navicat, what comes across, what does not, and how to get your shortcuts back
Most of a migration is one dialog. **File > Import from Other App…** reads the connections your current client already has, including groups and folders, and the source app does not need to be running.
This page covers the rest: what does not come across, and what to do about it.
## Import your connections
**File > Import from Other App…**
TablePlus, Sequel Ace, DBeaver, DataGrip and Beekeeper Studio are read in place. Navicat is the exception: export first with **File > Export Connections** in Navicat, with **Export Password** turned on, then point TablePro at the `.ncx` file.
Deselect anything you do not want, resolve duplicates, click **Import**.
Connect to a connection that had a password. That is the only check that proves the credential came across, and deleting the source app is the one step you cannot undo.
SSH tunnel and SSL settings come across with the connection. Which engines each source carries, and the quirks of each one, are in [Connection Sharing](/features/connection-sharing).
## About passwords
| Where your old client keeps them | What the import does |
| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Its own encrypted store: DBeaver, Beekeeper Studio, Navicat | Decrypts it and runs start to finish with nothing to click |
| The macOS Keychain: TablePlus, Sequel Ace, DataGrip | macOS asks permission once per item. Choose **Always Allow** rather than **Allow** and the run stops asking |
A DataGrip project protected by a master password cannot be read at all. Import those connections and set their passwords in TablePro.
## What does not come across
| Not imported | What to do |
| ----------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Saved queries and snippets | Re-save the ones you actually use as [Favorites](/features/favorites) with `Cmd+D`. To keep a whole folder of `.sql` files in sync instead, including one tracked in git, [Linked Folders](/features/connection-sharing) does that and needs a Starter license |
| Query history | Starts fresh. TablePro records history per connection from the first query you run, searchable with `Cmd+Y` |
| Column widths, sort order and per-table filters | Rebuilt as you browse. TablePro saves these per table on its own |
| Keyboard shortcuts | See the next section |
## Getting your shortcuts back
TablePro follows macOS conventions, so a good number of chords already match whatever you were using: `Cmd+N`, `Cmd+W`, `Cmd+S`, `Cmd+O`, `Cmd+Q`, `Cmd+F`, and `Cmd+Enter` to run a query.
Where yours differ, rebind them in **Settings > Keyboard** (`Cmd+,`). Record the chord you are used to and TablePro warns you if something else already claims it.
Set these up on your first day:
| Job | TablePro |
| -------------------------------------------------- | ----------------- |
| Run the statement under the cursor | `Cmd+Enter` |
| Run every statement | `Cmd+Shift+Enter` |
| Jump to any table, database or saved query by name | `Cmd+Shift+O` |
| Switch database | `Cmd+K` |
| Query history | `Cmd+Y` |
| Cancel a running query | `Cmd+.` |
| Format the query | `Cmd+Shift+L` |
| Explain the query | `Cmd+Option+E` |
| Save the query as a favorite | `Cmd+D` |
A few cannot be reassigned, so learn them rather than fight them: editor built-ins such as `Cmd+/` for comment, `Cmd+[` and `Cmd+]` for indent, tab selection `Cmd+1` through `Cmd+9`, and text size `Cmd+=` and `Cmd+-`. The recorder tells you when you hit one.
Coming from TablePlus, where `Cmd+F` opens the row filter? Rebind **Toggle Filters** to `Cmd+F` in **Settings > Keyboard** and choose **Reassign** when it asks. Find gives up `Cmd+F` while the filter bar holds it, and takes it back if you move the filter bar off again.
If you use Vim bindings, turn on [Vim Mode](/features/vim-mode) in **Settings > Editor** and most of this section stops mattering.
The full list is in [Keyboard Shortcuts](/features/keyboard-shortcuts).
## Coming from a client TablePro cannot import
Two other routes exist.
**A connection URL.** **Add from Existing > Import from URL** takes a `postgres://`, `mysql://` or similar URL and fills in the form. Fastest path when you only have a handful of connections.
**A project folder.** [Open Project Folder](/features/project-folder-import) reads the database settings out of a project's config files, so a repository with a `.env`, `docker-compose.yml` or framework config becomes a connection without you typing a host.
## If your database is not supported yet
Five drivers ship inside the app and cover nine databases. Nineteen registry plugins cover the
other twenty-one and install on the first connection that needs one. See
[Plugins & Themes](/features/plugins).
A database missing from the connection form may still be one click away in **Settings > Plugins > Browse**.
If it is genuinely not there, open a request on [GitHub](https://github.com/TableProApp/TablePro/issues). Driver coverage is tracked in the open, and the [supported database list](/connections) is the current answer.
