If you want a quick way to connect to your MySQL service, you might consider using the MySQL URL format, provided your driver supports it:

mysql://root:<ROOT_PASSWORD>@<XXXXXX>.stackhero-network.com:<PORT>/root?useSSL=true&requireSSL=true

If you are working with Ruby, the URL format is slightly different:

mysql2://root:<ROOT_PASSWORD>@<XXXXXX>.stackhero-network.com:<PORT>/root?reconnect=true&useSSL=true&requireSSL=true
