How Do I Export a Database from Hostinger?

Published in Database Management 1 min read

You can export a database from Hostinger using the phpMyAdmin tool, which is accessible from your Hostinger control panel.

Steps to Export a Database from Hostinger:

  1. Log in to your Hostinger control panel.
  2. Navigate to the "Databases" section.
  3. Select "phpMyAdmin."
  4. Choose the database you want to export.
  5. Click on the "Export" tab.
  6. Select the desired export format (e.g., SQL, CSV).
  7. Choose any additional options (e.g., compression, specific tables).
  8. Click on the "Go" button.

The database will be exported as a file, which you can then download and save to your computer.

Practical Insights:

  • You can use the exported database file to restore your data on a different server or to create a backup.
  • Hostinger offers a feature called "Database Backups," which automatically creates backups of your databases at regular intervals. You can access and download these backups through your Hostinger control panel.
  • Consider using a third-party tool like MySQL Workbench for exporting and managing your databases, as it offers more advanced features.
