Description: The main admin workflows available inside Better Auth Studio.

# Features

Better Auth Studio gives you a full admin UI on top of your Better Auth database. This section documents the major workflows available inside the studio.

**Dashboard** — The landing screen shows aggregate counts for users, teams, and organizations, so you can understand the state of your system at a glance.

**User Management** — Create, edit, delete, and search users. You can update email verification status, view linked accounts, and bulk-seed test users for development. When event tracking is enabled, the studio also surfaces a `lastSeenAt` timestamp for each user.

**[Organization Management](/docs/features/organization-management)** — Manage the multi-tenant layer of your auth system. Create organizations with custom slugs, manage teams inside those organizations, control membership, handle invitations, and bulk-seed test data.

**Settings** — Inspect which Better Auth plugins are active, review your database adapter configuration, and check the status of OAuth social providers and email settings.

## Examples

Use these examples as concrete starting points for this workflow:

### Setup

import { auth } from "./lib/auth";

const config: StudioConfig = {
  auth,
  basePath: "/api/studio",
  metadata: {
    title: "Admin Dashboard",
    theme: "dark",
  },
  access: {
    roles: ["admin"],
    allowEmails: ["admin@example.com"],
    allowIpAddresses: ["127.0.0.1", "::1", "192.168.*"],
    blockIpAddresses: ["203.0.113.45"],
  },
};

export default config;
```

### Basic Usage

# Start on custom port (if installed as dev dependency)
pnpm better-auth-studio start --port 3001

# Or with pnpx
pnpx better-auth-studio start --port 3001
