# Magento 2  -  Update Customer/Admin Password via Query

Update password can be done via mysql query, simply just execute this query to update customer’s password :

```php
UPDATE customer_entity SET password_hash = CONCAT(SHA2('xxxxxxxTypeYourPasswordHere', 256), ':xxxxxxx:1') WHERE email = 'johndoe@example.com';
```

And this query for admin :

```php
UPDATE admin_user SET password = CONCAT(SHA2('xxxxxxxTypeYourPasswordHere', 256), ':xxxxxxx:1') WHERE email = 'johndoe@example.com';
```

Notes :

* Change **TypeYourPasswordHere** by new password \*\*without \*\*removing xxxxxxx
    
* Change \*\*johndoe@example.com \*\*by email of customer/admin.
