Master key and Application ID in the self-hosted solution

#1

Hi, with Railway the Moralis Application ID and Master Key will be deprecated and not necessary any more from 1st of April?

Will be necessary only the API Key?

In the cloud functions, for queries on collections without permission write and read e.g.:

await query.find({ useMasterKey: true });
await query.save(null, { useMasterKey: true });

what master key should be used?

Hi, in the self hosted solution you can use what you used before, from 1 April it will be a change only for the moralis managed servers.

Hi, I’ve two servers running currently with a paid plan, and I think, as far as I understood, that the two instances will be dismissed if I don’t upgrade the plan with 99$ for each instance / month.

In this scenario, if we don’t upgrade, we will lose access to the two applications, and also to APP ID and MasterKey. So I was wondering how I could obtain the same values (APP ID / Master Key), only with an external service?

if you self host with a parse server, this is the tutorial for it: https://v1docs.moralis.io/moralis-dapp/getting-started/self-hosting-moralis-server

then you will get an app id and a master key specific to that self hosted server

ok but we can use any parameter we want as master key and APP ID, or they are generated somewhere on parse server and we need to use those generated? If it’s this second thing, where we can find them?

Thanks

you can set any value for them when you self host a parse server, there is default generated value for master key but you can change it after it was generated
