root user in free edition web console?

Hi all,

With DB free edition i am logged in as a spark-xxxx user after opening web console.

Is it possible to work as root user and how?

I have access to a commercial DB instance and here i am in fact root with opening the web console. How is this controlled and configured?

For this spark-xxxx user is there some default password (so i can possibly try sudo?)?

Hi @fehrin1 ,

Unfortunately ,this is not possible in Serverless. You can't login as root or use sudo command.
