Hello, @techsupport19fe

You can check our existing tutorial on Connecting to a Managed MySQL Database

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-connect-to-managed-database-ubuntu-18-04#connecting-to-a-managed-mysql-database

You can use the terminal on your PC or use a database client like MySQL Workbench.

Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
