You can find it in cPanel \> MySQL Databases. Inside it contains everything you need to know in order to make a database connection

The database server address is the database hostname. It should look like [sql123.epizy.com](http://sql123.epizy.com). Did you try that already? If so, what did the Prestashop software say about that hostname?
