How to remotely connect to ClearDB in an Azure Website?

Viewed 4923

I have created a free Azure Website with Wordpress on it. A ClearDB mysql database was automatically created.
I want to remote connect to the DB using something like MySQL Workbench.
I used the credentials from the "View connection strings" in the azure portal dashboard, but there is an error connecting.

I read in some post that the db itself is hosted in azure cloud and thus can not be accessed. Have anyone managed to administrate a DB like this ?
