Context

The render.yaml blueprint is not synced automatically. Any changes to workers, environment variables, or new services require manual synchronization through the Render dashboard.

​
When to Use

  • After making changes to render.yaml

​
Procedure

​
Step 1: Sync Blueprint in Render Dashboard

Navigate to the Render Blueprint dashboard and manually sync: 
https://dashboard.render.com/blueprint/exs-cgvt2qiut4mc4kajuf6g
1

Open Blueprint URL

Go to the URL above and log in to Render if needed
2

Click Manual Sync

Click the “Sync” button to manually sync the blueprint.
3

Review Changes

Review the proposed changes carefully. Render will show you a diff of what will be updated.
4

Apply Changes

Click the sync/apply button to deploy the infrastructure changes
5

Monitor Deployment

Watch the deployment logs to ensure all services start successfully

​
Step 2: Update Deploy Workflow (For New Services)

If you created a new service, you must add its serviceId to the deployment workflow:
1

Locate the Service ID

After creating the service in Render, copy its service ID from the service settings or URL
2

Edit Deploy Workflow

Open .github/workflows/deploy.yml and add the new service ID to the appropriate section
3

Commit Changes

Commit and push the changes to the deploy workflow
Example structure in deploy.yml: 
deploy-sandbox:
  name: "Deploy to Sandbox 🧪"
  uses: ./.github/workflows/deploy-environment.yml
  with:
    environment: sandbox
    docker-digest: ${{ needs.build.outputs.digest }}
    # Modify render-service-ids
    render-service-ids: "srv-crkocgbtq21c73ddsdbg,srv-d089jj7diees73934kgg"
    # more config ...

​
Post-Procedure

  • Verify all services are running
  • Test critical functionality
  • Document the changes in the on-call log
