Databases ​

Databases

URL: /client/databases

Manage your databases and database users from a centralized interface. Create new databases, manage users, and assign privileges in one place.

Databases Section ​

The Databases section displays all your created databases with essential information.

Create Database ​

Click the "Create Database" button to add a new database. Enter a name for your database and submit to create it.

Create Database Form

The form includes the following field:

  • Database Name (text, required) - Enter the name for your database. Your account name is automatically prefixed (e.g. "demo_")

Click "Create" to add the database or "Cancel" to exit the form.

Database Management ​

Use the search bar to quickly find databases by name. When databases exist, the table displays:

  • Name: The database identifier
  • Size: Current storage usage
  • Privileged Users: Number of users with access
  • Actions: Options to manage or delete the database

The Edit action opens a dialog with the privileged users of the database and a Backups section, where you can create, restore, and delete dumps of the database; see Database Backups.

Empty State ​

If you have no databases, the interface displays "No Databases" with a prompt to create your first database.

Database Users Section ​

The Database Users section allows you to create and manage accounts for accessing your databases.

Create Database User ​

Click the "Create Database User" button to add a new database user account. Specify a username and password for the new user.

Create Database User Form

The form includes the following fields:

  • Username (text, required) - Enter the username for the database user. Your account name is automatically prefixed (e.g. "demo_")
  • Password (password, required) - Enter a secure password for the database user
  • Confirm Password (password, required) - Re-enter your password to confirm
  • Password Strength - A visual indicator shows the strength of your chosen password

Click "Create" to add the database user or "Cancel" to exit the form.

User Management ​

Use the search bar to filter users by username. When users exist, the table displays:

  • Username: The user account identifier
  • Actions: Options to modify permissions or delete the user

Empty State ​

If you have no database users, the interface displays "No Database Users" with a prompt to create your first user.

Connecting from outside the server ​

By default your databases accept connections from this server only. To reach them from a desktop client or an application hosted elsewhere, allow that host on the Remote MySQL page; the database name, user, and password stay the same.

Workflow ​

To set up database access, first create a database, then create a user, and finally assign the user privileges to that database.
