How to deploy your first Strapi Cloud project

Strapi Cloud lets you deploy your existing Strapi projects directly from GitHub or GitLab. Before deploying, ensure your Strapi project uses version 4.8.2 or higher and is compatible with PostgreSQL.

Follow these steps to deploy:

1. Navigate to cloud.strapi.io and sign in

2. Click Create Project and select a plan

   • New users can start with a Free plan

3. Connect your Git repository

   • Choose GitHub or GitLab

   • Select your account and repository

4. Configure basic deployment settings

   • Choose your project display name

   • Choose your Git branch

   • Choose your hosting region

5. Click Create Project

Your project will deploy automatically after configuration. Future changes pushed to your selected branch will trigger new deployments, unless you've deselected "Deploy the project on every commit pushed to this branch".
