Is it an ssh tunnel you wish to use? I’m not sure that is possible unless the connection for Postgres supports it. I don’t think it does. It may be possible to create a custom app. There is an ssh app available so if you want to try that to create the tunnel and send psql calls that way it may be a way. I haven’t done it though.

Still nothing, I’m looking for options.  
That’s what I want to do, to access the database through an SSH tunnel to automate a table with a CRM
