    Hello Melvin

    I was able to create a connection but when I selected a tool and choose a connection it still errors "Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed".

    Thanks

    Hi BabuLD,

    Is it possible for you to take a screenshot and see you're connection details. Obviously block out any sensitive information while doing so.
