MySQL Workbench generate tables from EER Diagram

Question

I am using MySQL Workbench and created an EER Diagram with several classes, columns, relationships, etc... now I have been looking and wondering if it is possible to let this application auto-generate these tables in my database? Up until now I haven't found it.

Answer 1

You can try File -> Export -> Forward Engineer SQL Create Script. Here you can generate the SQL Script corresponding to your EER diagram, and execute this script in your database engine.

Answer 2

check out this tutorial from the MySQL website,HERE and HERE it shows how to create a connection between Workbench and the server and after that you can forward engineer any tables and such into a database. Hope it's what you're looking for.:)

Is this an update to PierreF's 2014 answer? Did the menus change, or is this option available in both? (Which version?) – Zorina
