Database Management

Each WordPress app includes a managed MySQL database. The simplest way to inspect it is through the built-in DB Explorer, which opens an Adminer UI in your browser.

Open the database in Adminer

  1. Open the Databases tab for your app.
  2. Review the database card if you need the host, port, username, or password.
  3. Click Go to DB Explorer.
  4. Browse WordPress tables such as wp_options, wp_posts, wp_users, and wp_terms.

When to use it

The DB Explorer is useful when you need to:

  • Inspect WordPress tables directly
  • Verify a setting in wp_options
  • Check whether content, users, or metadata exists
  • Troubleshoot a plugin or theme issue that affects stored data

Editing production data directly in the database can break your site immediately. Make small, targeted changes only when you understand the impact.
