# Deploying Admin on Netlify
|
|
|
|
This is a guide for deploying Medusa Admin on Netlify. Netlify is a platform that offers hosting and backend services for applications and static websites.
|
|
|
|
> At this point, you should have a running instance of Medusa Admin. If not, check out [these steps](https://github.com/medusajs/admin#-setting-up-admin) or use `npx create-medusa-app` to set up your application in a matter of minutes. For the latter, see [this guide](https://docs.medusa-commerce.com/how-to/create-medusa-app) for a small walkthrough.
|
|
|
|
### 1. Install the Netlify CLI
|
|
|
|
Install Netlify CLI on your machine using npm:
|
|
|
|
```shell=
|
|
npm install netlify-cli -g
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Login to your Netlify account
|
|
|
|
Connect to your Netlify account from your terminal:
|
|
|
|
```shell=
|
|
netlify login
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Follow the instructions in your terminal.
|
|
|
|
### 3. Netlify setup
|
|
|
|
In order to deploy on Netlify, you need to create a new site, link the admin repository to the site and configure environment variables.
|
|
|
|
The Netlify CLI is used to achieve this.
|
|
|
|
#### Create a new site
|
|
|
|
```shell=
|
|
netlify init
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Follow the instructions in your terminal to authorize and connect your Git repository.
|
|
|
|
The default build and deploy settings fit the needs of a Gatsby application, so leave these as is.
|
|
|
|
#### Add an environment variable
|
|
|
|
```shell=
|
|
netlify env:set GATSBY_MEDUSA_BACKEND_URL "https://your-medusa-server.com"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The above environment variable should point to your Medusa server.
|
|
|
|
### 4. Push and deploy
|
|
|
|
Finally to deploy the admin, commit and push your changes to the repository connected in step 3.
|
|
|
|
```shell=
|
|
git add .
|
|
git commit -m "Deploy Medusa Admin on Netlify"
|
|
git push origin main
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Within a couple of minutes, your Medusa Admin is live and running on Netlify.
|
|
|
|
> If you experience CORS issues in your new setup, you might need to add your admin url as part of the ADMIN_CORS environment variable in your server setup.
|
|
|
|

If you haven't deployed your Medusa server to use with your new admin, check out our guide [Deploying on Heroku](https://docs.medusa-commerce.com/how-to/deploying-on-heroku).
