Render¶
Render is a very popular Platform as a Service (PaaS). It allows to quickly host and serve your applications without worrying about server management. Actually, Fief Cloud is hosted on Render!
We provide an official blueprint creating all the services you need to run Fief.
Before starting¶
- If you don't have one yet, create an account on Render.
- Go to https://dashboard.render.com/env-groups
- Create a New Environment Group and name it fief (all lowercase)
You can then proceed to the blueprint!
Apply the blueprint¶
We provide variations for each data center locations supported by Fief. The best practice is to choose the one closer to you and your users.

Fill the environment variables¶
We already set most of the environment variables, but you still have to set a few ones.
You can find the reference of those values in the environment variables section.
Encryption key generator
The encryption key should be a valid key for the Fernet encryption algorithm. Use the generator above to get yours! Keep it secret.
Set the custom domain¶
When the deployment is done, you need to link your domain with the fief-server service. Open the Settings of this service and in the Custom Domains section, add your domain.
If you plan to have several workspaces, you can set a wildcard domain, like, *.fief.dev.
