Product Enhancement Request:
Add a feature to import/export SQL connections between Oracle SQL Developer and the VS Code SQL Developer extension.
Reason:
Currently, users must manually recreate connections, which is time-consuming and error-prone—especially for teams managing many environments.
Proposal:
- Allow export of selected or all connections from SQL Developer to a portable, encrypted JSON/XML file.
- Enable import of that file into VS Code SQL Developer (and vice versa).
- Include connection details: name, host, port, service/SID, user, and optional encrypted password.
- Support bidirectional compatibility for seamless migration.
Benefit:
Saves time, reduces errors, ensures consistent environments, and speeds up onboarding for teams.
