RabbitMQ default login and password

Default credentials when bootingup a new RabbitMQ instance

When you start a new RabbitMQ instance, it comes with a default user called guest and a password also called guest. This user has full access to the RabbitMQ management plugin, which is enabled by default. However, this user can only connect from localhost, which means that you cannot use it to connect to RabbitMQ from another machine.

• User: guest
• Password: guest

Connecting to RabbitMQ with RabbitGUI

RabbitGUI is a RabbitMQ IDE that allows you to connect to RabbitMQ instances and manage them easily. To connect to your local RabbitMQ instance with RabbitGUI, create a connexion with the following information:

• Display name: Local or any other name you want (local connexions are automatically colored in green)
• Host: http://127.0.0.1:15672
• User: guest
• Password: guest

You can save your connexion, and it will appear in the list of connexions. You can also add multiple connexions to different RabbitMQ instances, and they will be displayed alongside.

Connecting to your local RabbitMQ admin interface

RabbitMQ ships with a rudimentary admin interface that you can access at http://127.0.0.1:15672 by default. You will be presented with a simple login page where you can enter the default credentials:

• User: guest
• Password: guest
