Camunda installation and database schema/table creation

I am setting up Camunda from scratch and have some questions.

  • Does engine installation creates the database schema/tables by itself or it requires manual creation?
    What is recommended?
  • Does it support Mysql 8.0?

Thank you

@Kalpesh_Patel You can use the camunda starter below to generate the project which auto generates the tables.

https://start.camunda.com/

Prerequisite is only to create empty schema, tables will be auto generated.

If required, you can set this property too databaseSchemaUpdate=true.

Hi @Kalpesh_Patel,

MySql 8.0 is supported: Supported Environments | docs.camunda.org

Hope this helps, Ingo
