how to create superuser in django heroku

To create a superuser in Django on Heroku, follow these steps:

  1. Access Heroku CLI: Open the command-line interface and log in to Heroku by entering heroku login and providing your credentials.

  2. Access Heroku Shell: Type heroku run bash -a <your-app-name> in the command line. Replace <your-app-name> with the name of your Django app on Heroku.

  3. Access Django Shell: Within the Heroku shell, enter python manage.py createsuperuser. This command will prompt you to enter a username, email address, and password for the superuser.

  4. Enter Superuser Details: Follow the prompts to provide the required information for the superuser. The password will be hidden for security purposes.

  5. Confirm Superuser Creation: Once you've entered all the details, Django will confirm the successful creation of the superuser.

  6. Exit Django Shell and Heroku Shell: Type exit() to leave the Django shell and then exit to leave the Heroku shell.

Creating a superuser this way ensures that you have administrative access to your Django application deployed on Heroku.
