MinIO default password & login

S3-compatible object storage. Default root credentials are minioadmin / minioadmin — set MINIO_ROOT_USER / MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD before exposing.

Use these credentials for the very first login to MinIO only. The full vendor documentation linked below explains how to rotate them and harden the install.

Default username
minioadmin
Default password
minioadmin
Default port
9000(PHP-FPM / Portainer)
Default admin URL
http://localhost:9000

Notes & recovery

Console runs on a separate port (default 9001). Rotate root credentials via mc admin user.

Change the default immediately

Anyone with internet access can try the published default on MinIO. Set a strong, unique password the moment you finish first-time setup, ideally before exposing the service to your LAN.
