Hi @LifeTaker. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

To create and test an account in your local environment, and access the database to see the saved data, you can follow these steps:
1. Create an account:
Run your Wasp app locally using
wasp start. Navigate to the signup page and create an account. If you've set up authentication as described in the Wasp authentication tutorial (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/tutorial/auth), you should be able to sign up using a username and password.
2. Test the account:
After signing up, you should be able to log in with your new credentials. If you've set authRequired: true for certain pages, you can test if you can access those pages when logged in.
3. Create an admin account:
By default, Wasp sets isAdmin to true for new users. You can modify this in your User entity definition:

4. Access the database:
To view the data saved in your local database, you can use Prisma Studio:
This will open Prisma Studio in your browser, where you can see all entities, including the User entity with the accounts you've created. Source (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/tutorial/auth#update-the-main-page-to-require-auth)
5. Alternative database access:
If you're using a PostgreSQL database (which is recommended for development), you can also connect to it using pgAdmin. The connection details can be found in the DATABASE_URL in your .env.server file. Source (https://discord.com/channels/686873244791210014/1216013963528245328)
Remember to run wasp db migrate-dev if you make any changes to your entity definitions to update the database schema.
