  Creates an administrator

Now we will create an admin user through the command line. In root folder run the following command:

php bin/magento admin:user:create --admin-user=GD User --admin-password=pass123 --admin-email=admin@abc.com --admin-firstname=GD --admin-lastname=Blogger

In the above command,

• User: GD User
• Password: pass123

You can also run this command in the root folder to create a new admin user.
