 * Where in WP Data Access can I set it so that I can create local databases.
 * Now I see the message: You are not authorized to create local databases

 * Hi [@kaziukos](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kaziukos/),
 * A local database (also called schema) is located on the same physical server 
   as your WordPress database.
 * Depending on your host, you’re usually only allowed a single database, but you
   can check in with your hosting provider if there are options to add more within
   your WordPress server.
 * Hope that helps. Let us know if you have other questions. 🙏
