Pull Request Checklist

Note to first-time contributors: Please open a discussion post in Discussions to discuss your idea/fix with the community before creating a pull request, and describe your changes before submitting a pull request.

This is to ensure large feature PRs are discussed with the community first, before starting work on it. If the community does not want this feature or it is not relevant for Open WebUI as a project, it can be identified in the discussion before working on the feature and submitting the PR.

Before submitting, make sure you've checked the following:

  • Target branch: Verify that the pull request targets the dev branch. PRs targeting main will be immediately closed.
  • Description: Provide a concise description of the changes made in this pull request down below.
  • Changelog: Ensure a changelog entry following the format of Keep a Changelog is added at the bottom of the PR description.
  • Documentation: Add docs in Open WebUI Docs Repository. Document user-facing behavior, environment variables, public APIs/interfaces, or deployment steps. (Deployment steps and env vars documented in README; can add to docs repo in follow-up if desired.)
  • Dependencies: Are there any new or upgraded dependencies? If so, explain why, update the changelog/docs, and include any compatibility notes. No new dependencies. Render Blueprint and README only.
  • Testing: Perform manual tests to verify the implemented fix/feature works as intended AND does not break any other functionality. Include reproducible steps to demonstrate the issue before the fix. Test edge cases (URL encoding, HTML entities, types). Take this as an opportunity to make screenshots of the feature/fix and include them in the PR description. (Deployed from Blueprint on Render; service builds, health check passes, app loads. Only render.yaml and README changed.)
  • Agentic AI Code: Confirm this Pull Request is not written by any AI Agent or has at least gone through additional human review AND manual testing. If any AI Agent is the co-author of this PR, it may lead to immediate closure of the PR.
  • Code review: Have you performed a self-review of your code, addressing any coding standard issues and ensuring adherence to the project's coding standards?
  • Design & Architecture: Prefer smart defaults over adding new settings; use local state for ephemeral UI logic. Open a Discussion for major architectural or UX changes. (N/A – deploy config and docs only.)
  • Git Hygiene: Keep PRs atomic (one logical change). Clean up commits and rebase on dev to ensure no unrelated commits (e.g. from main) are included. Push updates to the existing PR branch instead of closing and reopening.
  • Title Prefix: To clearly categorize this pull request, prefix the pull request title using one of the following: feat (see PR title).

Changelog Entry

Description

  • Adds one-click deployment for Open WebUI on Render via a Blueprint (render.yaml) and a "Deploy on Render" section in the README. Deployment is OpenAI/API-only on Render (Ollama does not run there). WEBUI_SECRET_KEY is auto-generated by Render; users set OPENAI_API_KEY in the Dashboard for chat.

Added

  • render.yaml – Render Blueprint: Docker web service (free tier), health check, WEBUI_SECRET_KEY with generateValue: true, OPENAI_API_KEY (user-set), analytics disabled.
  • README section "Deploy on Render" – Steps, env vars (WEBUI_SECRET_KEY auto-generated, OPENAI_API_KEY required), notes on ephemeral data and persistent disk, and Deploy to Render button.

Changed

  • None.

Deprecated

  • None.

Removed

  • None.

Fixed

  • None.

Security

  • None.

Breaking Changes

  • None.

Additional Information

  • Ollama does not run on Render; README and blueprint state deployment is for OpenAI-compatible APIs only (OpenAI, OpenRouter, Groq, etc.). Optional OLLAMA_BASE_URL can be set in the Dashboard if the user has an external Ollama server.
  • One-click Blueprint link: https://dashboard.render.com/blueprint/new?repo=https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui

Screenshots or Videos

  • N/A – documentation and YAML config only.
