Configuration Overview

Use this page when configuring a self-hosted or managed OpenPost instance.

This overview does not replace the complete environment-variable and provider-application references.

OpenPost settings fall into these groups:

• Server: port, public frontend URL, extra CORS origins
• Database: SQLite path by default, or Postgres URL for cloud deployments
• Secrets: JWT signing and token encryption
• Media: local filesystem path by default, or S3-compatible storage for cloud deployments
• Social networks: provider application ownership, client keys, callback addresses, and server-specific settings
• Operations: self-hosted update checks and cloud-only limits on social network costs
• Platform-specific behavior: options such as LinkedIn thread reply disabling

For the full list, start with Environment Variables.
