# Deploying your portal with AWS Amplify

Deploy your portal by connecting your repository to AWS Amplify Console. For more information, see the [Amplify documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amplify/latest/userguide/welcome.html).

## Before you begin

* You have the relevant rights on AWS.
* You have generated your API Portal repository.

## Procedure

1. Log in to AWS and open the Amplify service.
2. Create a new app:
   * If this is the first web app on your account, click Get started under Host your web app at the bottom of the AWS Amplify homepage.
   * If there are already other web apps, click New app > Host web app.
3. Select your Git provider as the source, and click Continue to connect your repository.

   ![For example, select GitHub in the Host your web app page.](https://help.qlik.com/talend/en-US/api-portal-deployment-guide/Resources/images/deploy_to_aws_01_git_provider.png)
4. Click Authorize aws-amplify-console.
5. Select your repository and your branch, then click Next.
