# Open a database console for a space

`POST /v1/spaces/{spaceId}/db/console`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.spacefast.com`
- URL: `https://api.spacefast.com/v1/spaces/{spaceId}/db/console`
- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - HTTP bearer

Mints a short-lived phpMyAdmin sign-in URL for the space's own MySQL. This route is the escape hatch for questions the schema and dump reads cannot answer. The URL grants full SQL authority over the space's database. For that reason, this route requires write access to the space and masks the URL in `--json` output.

## Path parameters

- `spaceId` string, required

## Response `200`

Response for status 200

- object
  - `$schema` string, uri: Canonical JSON Schema URL for this response body. The server also sends it in the `Link: rel="describedby"` response header.
  - `data` object, required
    - `provider` 'phpmyadmin', required
    - `url` string, uri, required: Short-lived, single-use phpMyAdmin sign-in URL for the space MySQL. Treat it as a credential.

## Other responses

- `default`: Problem details (RFC 9457). Any 4xx/5xx response is one `application/problem+json` document.
