Deploy and Host Railway Secrets on Railway
Railway Secrets is a simple dashboard to manage and rotate Railway environment variables. It supports global and service-level scopes, manual/scheduled rotation, encrypted history, and secure admin access.
About Hosting Railway Secrets
Deploy a PHP web service, set required environment variables, and mount persistent storage. The dashboard manages and rotates secrets, while an optional cron service runs scheduled rotations. For reliability, mount the same volume for web and cron services. Use /health (or /healthz) for Railway health checks.
Common Use Cases
- Centralized rotation of API keys, JWT secrets, and integration credentials across multiple Railway services
- Scheduled credential hygiene with automated rotation intervals and encrypted rollback history
- Secure admin-only operations for teams that need controlled, auditable secret lifecycle management
Dependencies for Railway Secrets Hosting
- PHP 8.2 runtime with SQLite support
- Railway API token with permission to read/update project environment variables
