-The default credentials are:
 
-* Username: **admin**
-* Password: **admin**
-* API Token: **0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef01234567**
+To create the first admin user run this command:
+
+```bash
+docker compose exec netbox /opt/netbox/netbox/manage.py createsuperuser
+```
+
+If you need to restart Netbox from an empty database often, you can also set the `SUPERUSER_*` variables in your `docker-compose.override.yml` as shown in the example.
