            <p>
                When setting up {datasource} to work with Growthbook, remember it's important to create read-only users with minimal permissions, ideally granting only read access to the relevant data tables that need to be aggregated.
            </p>
            <p>
                If you are using GrowthBook Cloud (app.growthbook.io), make sure to whitelist the ip address <code>52.70.79.40</code> if applicable.
            </p>
            <p> 
                Unfortunately there isn't a specific guide for setting up {datasource} for Growthbook yet. 
                However, if you encounter any difficulties while setting up your data source, you can seek assistance from our active developer community on <a href={`https://slack.growthbook.io?ref=docs-datasource-${slug}`}>Slack</a>.
