## Add AWS credentials with AdministratorAccess
|
|
|
|
To deploy Chatwoot in your own AWS infrastructure with Restack, you will need to add your credentials as the next step.
|
|
|
|
Make sure that this account has *AdministratorAccess*. This is how Restack can ensure an end-to-end cluster creation and cluster management process.
|
|
|
|
1. Navigate to *Clusters* in the left-hand navigation menu.
|
|
2. Select the *Credentials* tab.
|
|
3. Click *Add credential*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Give a suitable title to your credentials for managing them later.
|
|
5. Enter your *AWS Access Key ID* and *AWS Secret Access key*.
|
|
6. Click *Add credential*.

## One-click cluster creation with Restack
|
|
|
|
<Tip>
|
|
Why do I need a cluster?<br/>
|
|
Running your application on a Kubernetes cluster lets you deploy, scale and monitor the application reliably.
|
|
</Tip>
|
|
|
|
Once you have added your credentials,
|
|
|
|
1. Navigate to the *Clusters* tab on the same page and click on *Create cluster*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Give a suitable name to your cluster.
|
|
3. Select the region you want to deploy the cluster in.
|
|
4. Select the AWS credentials you added in the previous step.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The cluster creation process will start automatically. Once the cluster is ready, you will get an email on the email id connected with your account.<br/>Creating a cluster is a one-time process. From here you can add other open source tools or multiple instances of Chatwoot in the same cluster.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any application you deploy in your cluster will be accessible via a free **restack domain**.<br/>Contact the Restack team via chat to set a custom domain for your Chatwoot instances.
|
|
|
|
## Deploy Chatwoot on Restack
|
|
|
|
1. Click *Add application* from the Cluster description or go to the Applications tab in the left hand side navigation.
|
|
2. Click *Chatwoot*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Select the cluster you have already provisioned.
|
|
4. Click *Add application*.
|
|
|
|
## Start using Chatwoot
|
|
|
|
Chatwoot will be deployed on your cluster and you can access it using the link under the *URL* tab.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also check the workloads and volumes that are deployed within Chatwoot.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Deploy multiple instances of Chatwoot
|
|
|
|
Restack makes it easier to deploy multiple instances of Chatwoot on the same or multiple clusters.<br/>So you can test the latest version before upgrading or have a dedicated instance for development and for production. |
