Create User

Easily create a new MySQL user in just a few clicks. Users are used for interacting with databases or the MySQL server.

Navigate to OpenPanel > MySQL > Create User:

1. Enter a Username
   Type your desired username into the input field. Only letters, numbers, and underscores are allowed, and the name must be between 1 and 31 characters long.

2. Enter a Password
   Type your desired password in the second input field (between 8 and 30 characters, and strong enough to pass the password strength check). To generate a strong random password, click the shuffle button next to the input field.

3. Click 'Create User'
   Once you enter or generate username and password, click the Create User button to create your new MySQL user.

Best Practices​

• Use short and descriptive names (e.g., app_data, wordpress_db).
• Avoid using uppercase letters, spaces, or special characters.
• Make sure the username name is meaningful for easy identification later.
