For example, now we are going to create an admin account with the following information:

User: mageplaza
Password: WeLoveMagento
Email: [email protected]
First Name: Mageplaza
Last Name: Family

So here is the command line:

            php bin/magento admin:user:create --admin-user=mageplaza --admin-password=WeLoveMagento [email protected] --admin-firstname=Mageplaza --admin-lastname=Family

It shows an error: Your password must include both numeric and alphabetic characters. The password should be more complex.

Password: WeLoveMagento123

            php bin/magento admin:user:create --admin-user=mageplaza --admin-password=WeLoveMagento123 [email protected] --admin-firstname=Mageplaza --admin-lastname=Family

Now, we successfully created a new admin account. The system returns this message:

            Created Magento administrator user named mageplaza

Now to go to admin login page, and fill the above information

magento 2 login

and you are in now, see this screenshot
