DataGrip is quickly becoming unusable to me due to it’s inability to show me a tables/field encoding.

I really have no clue how anyone thought that was an unnecessary feature.

Have you considered filing a ticket on their issue tracker? I find Jetbrains are pretty responsive...

Can you elaborate on what that is? I haven’t ran I to that before.

Like the other response on this says. Tables in MySQL (and individual columns, and databases) have an encoding associated with them, this determines what characters you can store in them.

Right now I cannot modify that in Datagrip, but worse, I cannot even see it without a raw query.

I'm assuming they're taking about character encoding, as in utf-8.
