This page helps you set up Amnify step by step. Follow the sections in order — each one builds on the previous.

​
1. Connect Your Cloud Providers

Before Amnify can scan or deploy anything, you need to connect at least one cloud account. This is a one-time setup per account. After connecting, Amnify discovers your subscriptions, accounts, or projects automatically. You can manage which ones are active in Integrations. See Integrations Overview for a full explanation of how cloud connections work.

​
2. Run Your First Security Scan

Once a cloud provider is connected, you can immediately scan it for security misconfigurations:
  1. Go to Security in the sidebar
  2. Click Run Scan
  3. Select the cloud integration and accounts to scan
  4. Wait for results — depending on the size of your environment, this takes a few minutes
After the scan completes, explore:
  • Dashboard — your security score, trends, and category breakdown
  • Findings — individual misconfigurations with severity and remediation guidance
  • Compliance — how your environment maps to frameworks like CIS, SOC 2, PCI-DSS
You can also schedule recurring scans to run automatically.

​
3. Connect GitHub for Infrastructure Deployments

If your team wants to use Amnify Deploy to provision cloud infrastructure, you need a GitHub repository that stores your Terraform templates.
  1. Go to Integrations and click Create integration
  2. Select GitHub as the provider
  3. Provide your repository name and a personal access token with read access
  4. Click Create
Once connected, go to Deploy → Templates and click Sync from GitHub to import your templates. See Using Templates for the required repository structure, or Templates for a conceptual overview.

​
4. Create Your First Deployment

With templates synced and a cloud integration configured, you’re ready to deploy infrastructure:
  1. Prerequisites — verify everything is in place
  2. Quickstart — step-by-step walkthrough of your first deployment
