Welcome to the Stackhero documentation

Securing your RethinkDB instance on Stackhero starts with setting up a strong admin password. To do this, you can connect to the RethinkDB web UI, navigate to the Data Explorer tab, and run the following query:

r.db('rethinkdb').table('users').get('admin').update({ password: '<PASSWORD>' })

Replace <PASSWORD> with your desired secure password.
