    The Admin Center is for BC Saas only:

    Business Central Admin Center - Business Central | Microsoft Docs

    For BC On Prem there's the NST Admin tool, and for BC on docker you use BCContainerHelper in Powershell.

    To administer the instance created in a docker container you will need to use PowerShell. If you created the container with BCContainerHelper there will be a shortcut for the Powershell console created as part of the "installation."

    Hi,

    This question have been up a couple of times earlier.

    My understanding is that it is not possible so you need to admin it using PowerShell
