How can I export a database?

In this article, you’ll learn how to export a database using phpMyAdmin in your WPX hosting account.

Step 1. Log in to your WPX account

Begin by logging into your WPX account. You can do this by visiting the WPX login page.​

Step 2. Go to Control Panel

Once logged in:

  1. Locate your hosting plan in the WPX client area.
  2. Click the Control Panel button next to the plan you wish to manage.

If you have more than five hosting plans of the same type (WordPress or WooCommerce), not all may appear on the homepage. Use the WordPress Hosting or WooCommerce Hosting tab in the left-hand menu to find your service.

Step 4. Export the database

Once inside phpMyAdmin:

  1. Select the database you want to export from the left-hand sidebar.
  2. Click on the Export tab at the top.

On the next screen, leave the default settings (Format: SQL) and click Go. Your database will begin downloading to your local machine as a .sql file.

That’s it. You’ve successfully exported your database.
