Admin

Manage logins for the PocketBase admin panel.

Syntax

$ vela admin <command>

• create - Create a login for the admin panel

The admin panel

The admin interface is served at /admin, in development and on a deployed app alike. It is PocketBase’s own UI: collections, records, settings, logs and backups. Admin logins are superusers, entirely separate from your application’s users.

The first superuser is created for you by vela create or vela enable backend, and its credentials are written to .env. Use vela admin create to add a login for a colleague, or to give yourself one on a deployed target.
