TablePro connects to standalone Redis servers with hiredis. Keys are grouped by colon-separated namespaces in the sidebar. Values display with type-aware formatting in the data grid (strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets, streams).

​
Quick Setup

1

Create Connection

Click New Connection, select Redis, enter host/port/password/database, and click Create
2

Test Connection

Click Test Connection to verify

​
Connection Settings

Open URLs like redis://:password@host:6379/0 or rediss:// (TLS) from your browser. See Connection URL Reference.

​
Amazon ElastiCache (IAM)

Set Authentication to an AWS IAM mode (Access Key, Profile, or SSO) to connect to an IAM-enabled ElastiCache cache. TablePro generates a short-lived IAM auth token and uses it as the Redis password; the username is your IAM-enabled Redis user. Enter the AWS region and the cache name (replication group ID), and enable TLS, which ElastiCache IAM requires. Profiles resolve from ~/.aws/config and ~/.aws/credentials, including credential_process, SSO, and assumed roles.

​
SSL/TLS

Configure in the SSL/TLS pane of the connection form. Managed services like Upstash and Redis Cloud require TLS. Use rediss:// for URL imports. For untrusted-CA endpoints (Upstash, internal load balancers), pick Required (skip verify). For private CA setups, pick Verify CA and provide the CA certificate path. SNI is sent for every TLS mode; Verify Identity adds nothing over Verify CA on Redis.

Features

Namespace Browsing: The sidebar groups keys by separator (default :). user:1 and user:2 appear under a user folder, and nesting goes as deep as the key does (app:cache:session:1). Change the separator in Advanced settings.
Redis keys grouped by namespace in the sidebar with values in the data grid

Keys grouped by namespace with type-aware values

Key-Value Viewing: The grid has Key, Type, TTL, and Value columns. The Value column previews the key: strings as text, hashes as a JSON object, lists and sets as a JSON array, sorted sets as member:score pairs, streams as the newest 5 entries. Previews are cut off at 1,000 characters. Only a string Value cell can be edited in the grid; change the other types in the CLI. TTL Management: The TTL column shows seconds to expiry. -1 means no expiration, -2 means the key does not exist. Edit the cell to run EXPIRE, or set it to -1 to run PERSIST. Key Filtering: Toggle the filter bar to search keys by pattern. Patterns use Redis glob syntax (* matches any sequence, ? matches one character, [ae] matches a character set) and are case-sensitive, the same as redis-cli.
  • The type scope narrows results to String, Hash, List, Set, Sorted Set, or Stream.
  • Matching runs server-side with SCAN MATCH and SCAN TYPE, and stops after 10,000 matching keys.
  • Filtering by key value or TTL is not supported, since Redis has no server-side primitive for it.
Redis CLI: Each statement is one Redis command. To run several in one go, separate them with ;. TablePro passes each command through as-is, including commands it does not recognize; only the result formatting is type-aware. Redis has no comment syntax, and TablePro does not strip comments, so a -- or # line inside a statement is sent to the server and fails. The blocks below list one command per line for reference.

Hash, list, set, and sorted set operations:

Troubleshooting

Connection refused: Check Redis is running (brew services start redis), verify correct port in redis.conf, check bind directive. Auth failed: Verify password matches requirepass in redis.conf. For Redis 6.0+ ACL: ACL SETUSER myuser on >password ~* +@all Timeout: Verify host/port, check network and firewall, whitelist IP for cloud-hosted Redis. Slow key list: KEYS blocks the server on a large keyspace. Browse by namespace instead, and use SCAN when you need a pattern match in the CLI. Check memory pressure with INFO memory.

​
Limitations

  • Cluster mode is not supported. Connect to a single node.
  • Pub/Sub has no grid support. PUBLISH runs in the CLI, but there is no subscriber view.
  • The grid previews a stream’s newest 5 entries. Use XRANGE in the CLI for the rest.
  • The sidebar key tree loads at most 50,000 keys, and key filtering scans at most 10,000 matching keys.
