I’m trying to import a database with pg_restore to a managed postgres cluster but I get the following error:
could not execute query: ERROR: must be superuser to create an operator class
I’m connecting as “doadmin” which doesn’t have superuser privileges, how can I connect as “postgres” user? or is there a way to pg_restore allowing the creation of operator class as admin user?

Hey there,
At this time it isn’t possible to create a superuser with DO Managed Databases; this bars operator class access as a superuser is always needed to create one.
We’re learning more about Managed Databases every day and are always looking to improve the end-user experience. Should you want these to be implemented we’d love to hear your feedback on our IDEAS page. This is where our Product team looks to the community for ideas and use-cases that could be prioritized in future work cycles for us.

Seriously ? Releasing postgres managed DB without access to superuser ? What was the use case you were addressing when releasing this feature. And do you really expect everyone to manage things without a superuser ??
