Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it. Do you enter a schema in the connection settings?

Can you see other schemas when use other clients (e.g. DBeaver https://dbeaver.io/download/)?

No, I do not enter schema in the connection settings.
Yes, with adminer or dbeaver I see all the schemas (see screenshot)

Can you login as admin? If yes, please go to Administration menu>Server configuration and check whether Navigator simple view is enabled.

If yes, disable it and recreate the connection.

By default you system objects are hidden in CloudBeaver.
We plan add this configuration option in one of the next versions (in DBeaver it is shown as "Show system objects" setting on connection settings page).

Workaround: you can change connection config manually by editing file data-sources.json file. It can be found in CloudBeaver workspace folder in GlobalConfiguration/.dbeaver or user-projects/USER/.dbeaver.
Find you connection config there and add elemnt "show-system-objects": true somewhere after "name": "...".
Restart CloudBeaver server - now you can see system objects.

I add a connection with "show-system-objects": true in data-sources.json file (see joined file).
For information to see this connection in the GUI I had to connect with the admin user, otherwise I do not see it.
But with this connection it does not change anything: I still only see the sys database.
