Log in to the database

You can open your website's database straight from the Templ Panel using DB Admin, a built-in Adminer interface, without setting up any external tools or credentials.

Log in with DB Admin

1. Open the Templ Panel and click on the website that you want to access the database for.
2. Click on the Connect button in the top right corner. From the dropdown menu, select DB Admin
   
3. In the database login form, click Login without entering or changing any details - you will be logged in to the database automatically.
   
   Even though you see a login form, access uses token-based authentication behind the scenes. Leave the form fields exactly as they are and simply click Login - there is no need to fill in any credentials.

Troubleshooting

Getting a 404? The first time you use DB Admin, a new secret URL is generated for it, which can take a brief moment. If you land on a 404 page, wait a moment and refresh, or click the link again.

Recommendations

• Create a backup: We strongly recommend creating a backup before making any changes to your database. This ensures you can restore your data if needed.
• Test changes on a staging site: Consider testing any changes on a staging site first. This practice helps prevent issues on your live site due to untested changes.
