# Production Checklist

> Checklist for deploying Blink Server to production.

Before deploying Blink Server to production, complete this checklist.

## Required

### Set `BLINK_ACCESS_URL`

Set this to the public URL where your server is accessible. This is used for webhook callbacks and agent communication.

```bash theme={null}
BLINK_ACCESS_URL=https://blink.example.com
```

### Set `BLINK_AUTH_SECRET`

Set a secure, random secret for authentication. This is more reliable than the auto-generated secret stored on the filesystem.

```bash theme={null}
# Generate a secure secret
openssl rand -base64 32

BLINK_AUTH_SECRET=your-generated-secret
```

## Recommended

### Set up wildcard subdomain routing

For more secure webhook URLs, configure a wildcard domain. See [Wildcard Subdomain Routing](/server/webhooks#wildcard-subdomain-routing) for setup instructions.
