Hey @pityman ,

 

yes, that's possible.

Just change your local DB (localhost) to the production database (mydatabase or if it's on azure mydatabase .database.windows.net).

 

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
