# Cloud server with Open WebUI

<OpenWebUiDescription />

## Getting started with Open WebUI \{#getting-started-with-open-webui}

For Open WebUI to work, the cloud server must be accessible from the internet. To do this, when creating a server, you need to create a private subnet and attach a public floating IP address.

1. [Create a public floating IP address](#create-floating-ip).

2. [Create a cloud server with Open WebUI](#create-cloud-server-with-open-webui).

3. [Create an administrator account](#create-administrator-account).

4. [Launch Open WebUI](#run-open-webui).

### 1. Create a public floating IP address \{#create-floating-ip}

Create a public floating IP address to make the cloud server with Open WebUI accessible from the internet.

Use the [Create a public floating IP address](/cloud-servers/cloud-networks/public-floating-ip-addresses.mdx#create-public-floating-ip) section of the [Public Floating IP addresses](/cloud-servers/cloud-networks/public-floating-ip-addresses.mdx) guide.

### 2. Create a cloud server with Open WebUI \{#create-cloud-server-with-open-webui}

<Tabs queryString="create-open-webui-server">
  <TabItem value="with-gpu">
    <TabItemLabel>
      With GPU
    </TabItemLabel>

    <CreateServerWithGpu AppNameInPanel="Open WebUI" MinConfig="2 vCPU, RAM starting from 8 GB and a boot disk size starting from 80 GB" OptionalVolumes="Optional: add an additional" VolumeSize="Specify the size of the network disk in GB or TB" />
  </TabItem>

  <TabItem value="without-gpu">
    <TabItemLabel>
      Without GPU
    </TabItemLabel>

    <CreateServer AppNameInPanel="Open WebUI" MinConfig="2 vCPU, RAM starting from 8 GB and a boot disk size starting from 80 GB" OptionalVolumes="Optional: add an additional" VolumeSize="Specify the size of the network disk in GB or TB" />
  </TabItem>
</Tabs>

### 3. Create an administrator account \{#create-administrator-account}

1. Open the `http://<ip_address>` page in your browser.

   Specify `<ip_address>` — the public floating IP address of the cloud server. You can copy it in the [control panel](https://my.selectel.ru/): in the top menu, click **Products** → **Cloud Servers** → in the server card, click <CopyIcon /> next to the public floating IP address.

2. In the Open WebUI web interface, click **Let's get started**.

3. Enter a username.

4. Enter your email.

5. Enter your password.

6. Click **Create Administrator account**.

### 4. Launch Open WebUI \{#run-open-webui}

1. Open the `http://<ip_address>` page in your browser.

   Specify `<ip_address>` — the public floating IP address of the cloud server. You can copy it in the [control panel](https://my.selectel.ru/): in the top menu, click **Products** → **Cloud Servers** → in the server card, click <CopyIcon /> next to the public floating IP address.

2. Enter the administrator email address you specified when [creating the account](#create-administrator-account) in step 4.

3. Enter the administrator password you specified when [creating the account](#create-administrator-account) in step 5.

4. Click **Sign in**.
