SELF-HOSTING

Secrets and deployment configuration

Configure your secrets and environment variables when self-hosting Phase.

Depending on your self-hosted deployment method, you may need to configure various environment variables. Certain environment variables are required, while others are optional based on your use case.

For enhanced security, Phase services support mounting secrets from files. To use this feature, specify the mount location (e.g., /run/secrets/secret_key) using the _FILE suffix naming convention (e.g., SECRET_KEY_FILE). When a file-based secret is present, services will prioritize it over any corresponding environment variable. You can enable debug mode by setting DEBUG=True to view logs indicating the source of each loaded secret.

Single sign-on (SSO)

In order to authenticate with the Phase Console, you must enable at least one SSO provider. Enabling an SSO provider requires adding the provider to the list of SSO_PROVIDERS as well as providing valid credentials.

The following providers are available:

  • google - Google OAuth 2.0
  • github - GitHub OAuth 2.0
  • gitlab - GitLab OAuth 2.0
  • authentik - Authentik OAuth 2.0
  • github-enterprise - GitHub Enterprise Server OAuth 2.0
  • google-oidc - Google OIDC
  • jumpcloud-oidc - JumpCloud OIDC
  • entra-id-oidc - Microsoft Entra ID OIDC
  • okta-oidc - Okta OIDC
  • authelia - Authelia OIDC

You can find a complete list of user auth providers here.

AWS Integration

Assume Role

Choose a method of supplying AWS integration credentials to your Phase instance.

If you are running Phase inside of a container(s) on an AWS EC2 instance, you can use an EC2 instance profile to provision a machine role which Phase will use via the IMDSv2 API to assume other roles to get temporary credentials.

Step 1: Create IAM Policy

Create an IAM policy:

aws iam create-policy --policy-name PhaseGlobalAssumeRolePolicy --policy-document '{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Sid": "AllowAssumeAnyRole",
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": "sts:AssumeRole",
      "Resource": "arn:aws:iam::*:role/*"
    }
  ]
}'

Step 2: Create IAM role

aws iam create-role --role-name PhaseEC2InstanceRole --assume-role-policy-document '{
  "Version":"2012-10-17",
  "Statement":[
    {
      "Effect":"Allow",
      "Principal":{"Service":"ec2.amazonaws.com"},
      "Action":"sts:AssumeRole"
    }
  ]
}'

Step 3: Attach the policy to the role

aws iam attach-role-policy --role-name PhaseEC2InstanceRole --policy-arn <POLICY_ARN>

Step 4: Create an IAM instance profile

aws iam create-instance-profile --instance-profile-name PhaseEC2InstanceRole

Step 5: Add the role to the instance profile

aws iam add-role-to-instance-profile --instance-profile-name PhaseEC2InstanceRole --role-name PhaseEC2InstanceRole

Make sure this instance profile is attached to the EC2 instance(s) that will be used to run Phase.

Please make sure that the instance metadata service is enabled, and IMDSv2 is enabled and reachable from within the containers.

Depending on how you first created the EC2 instance, you may have to enable IMDSv2 manually and set the metadata response hop limit to 2. This is the default when creating an EC2 from the AWS Console launch wizard. You can use the following command to set the metadata response hop limit to 2. Make sure that you have the ec2:ModifyInstanceMetadataOptions permission before running it:

aws ec2 modify-instance-metadata-options --instance-id YOUR_INSTANCE_ID --http-put-response-hop-limit 2 --http-endpoint enabled --region YOUR_AWS_REGION_IF_NEEDED

Sample output:

{
    "InstanceId": "i-12f345f5d7890fb11",
    "InstanceMetadataOptions": {
        "State": "pending",
        "HttpTokens": "optional",
        "HttpPutResponseHopLimit": 2,
        "HttpEndpoint": "enabled",
        "HttpProtocolIpv6": "disabled",
        "InstanceMetadataTags": "disabled"
    }
}

License

Phase requires a valid license to use the Enterprise tier features in self-hosted deployments. You can request a free trial license here.

Offline license

For air-gapped or restricted-egress environments, use the PHASE_LICENSE_OFFLINE variable.

    PHASE_LICENSE_OFFLINE
    Type
    string
    Description

    The environment variable Phase license for self-hosted deployments with egress restrictions. Can be mounted from a file by suffixing _FILE to the key, pointing to a filepath Example: phase_license:v1:... Referenced by the backend and worker containers.

The backend logs license validation details on every startup:

phase-backend  | License is valid.
phase-backend  | License ID: e3de75b1-9afc-4ec1-a203-18febd7be2c0, Customer Name: SpaceX, Tier: ENTERPRISE, Expiry: 2080-01-01
