Using Liquibase in DBeaver

Team Edition integrates with Liquibase, an open-source tool that helps you track, manage, and apply database changes.

Overview

With Team Edition's Liquibase support, you can efficiently manage your database changes. You can create and manage Liquibase changelogs directly in Team Edition, making tracking and applying database changes easier. With the Liquibase PRO key, you can also use Team Edition's Schema Compare feature for an enhanced comparison of database schemas.

Supported Databases

Liquibase works with a variety of databases. The specific databases that Team Edition supports are listed in the Schema Compare article.

Steps to add a Liquibase Pro key

Locate your dbeaver.ini file. For help finding dbeaver.ini, see our article.
Edit the file:
- Find the -vmargs command.
- Add a new line after it:
```
-Dliquibase.license.key=yourKey  
```
  Example: -Dliquibase.license.key=ABwwGgQU...
Restart Team Edition.
Open Team Edition, then open the Schema Compare tool. The key will be verified automatically.

Note: If you add the key in both dbeaver.ini and through the Import Key dialog, the .ini file key takes priority.

Add Liquibase Pro key via the UI

You can also add the key directly in the UI:

Go to Preferences > Editors > Schema Compare.
Use the Import Liquibase Pro Key button to open the import key dialog.
