# Deploy and Host 1Password Connect API and Server on Railway

When you use 1Password Connect server as part of a Secrets Automation workflow, you can securely access your 1Password items and vaults in your company's apps and cloud infrastructure using a private REST API.

Connect servers work well for when you need unlimited requests and self-hosted infrastructure. 1Password also maintains several SDK libraries for the Connect API so you can integrate with your existing applications.

## About Hosting 1Password Connect API and Server

To get started, follow the documentation on 1Password's website to set up a Connect Server. https://developer.1password.com/docs/connect/get-started

You will need:
- a Connect Server on your 1Password Account
- a `1password-credentials.json` from that Connect Server
- Base64 encode your `1password-credentials.json` and provide it to the required `OP_SESSION` variable

Here's how to Base64 encode your json file:

```
cat 1password-credentials.json | base64 | tr '/+' '_-' | tr -d '=' | tr -d '\n'
```
