Logging in to phpMyAdmin
In DirectAdmin, open phpMyAdmin from Extra Features → phpMyAdmin or MySQL Management.
Import
- Select your database on the left.
- Go to the Import tab at the top.
- Choose the
.sql(or.sql.gz) file and click Go.
Export
- Select the database and go to Export.
- Choose the “Quick” method and SQL format, then click Go — the file downloads to your computer.
If a very large database won’t upload, upload it compressed (.gz) or contact support and we’ll import it on the server side.
