After it deploys

Open the Meilisearch service and copy the value of MEILI_MASTER_KEY from its variables. Check that it works:

curl https://your-domain/keys -H "Authorization: Bearer your-master-key"

The response lists the default search and admin API keys.

Good to know

  • Do not ship the master key: use it only to manage keys. Give your backend the admin key and your frontend the search key.
  • Connect another service: reference MEILI_MASTER_KEY and the Meilisearch address from the service that needs them, instead of copying the values.
