Using phpMyAdmin

Download PDF

Browse, edit, import, and export MySQL databases through phpMyAdmin in cPanel.

phpMyAdmin is a web-based tool for managing MySQL and MariaDB databases without writing SQL on the command line.

Open phpMyAdmin

  1. Go to Databases → phpMyAdmin in cPanel.
  2. phpMyAdmin opens in a new tab showing databases you have access to.
  3. Click a database name in the left sidebar to view its tables.

Common tasks

  • Import — select a database, click Import, choose an SQL file, and run the import.
  • Export — select a database, click Export, choose Quick or Custom format, and download the backup.
  • Browse/Edit — click a table to view rows and edit individual records.
  • Run SQL — use the SQL tab to execute custom queries.

Safety tips

Always export a backup before running imports or bulk SQL changes. Avoid dropping tables unless you are certain they are unused.
