Where can I find my current Odoo database name in Odoo itself?

Go to Dutch version

To connect to Odoo.sh or other Odoo environment, you need to specify both the server name (such as “myserver.odoo.com”) as well as the database name. Typically, you can find a list of available databases in the screen “My databases” which is available in the top-right menu:

Odoo "My databases"

However, not all users have access to this option. There is however an even more simple way to determine the database name:

  • active developer mode in the Settings app
  • look at the value between round brackets after your user name at the top-right menu bar:

The database name is in this case:

my-very-long-database-name

Is the database name missing from the top-right menu bar? Make sure to check that developer mode is active, as indicated by the “bug”-like icon at the top of the browser page:

Use that database name when creating your Odoo database for use with Invantive Cloud, Power BI, Tableau and other online products:
