Settings (Field)

Claimsfy Field
SettingMeaning
ADMIN_USER / ADMIN_PASSWORDFirst administrator, created on first start. If unset, the first visitor is asked to create one, so set it or sign in right away.
SESSION_SECRETRandom text that protects sign-ins. Render generates one.
MFA_REQUIRED1 requires two-step sign-in for every account from the first start. Otherwise an administrator turns it on in 👥 Users & access.
ANTHROPIC_API_KEYOptional. Turns on AI for everyone signed in, billed to this key.
SIGNUP_CODEOptional. The company code to start with, e.g. GULF-2026. Otherwise one is generated, and you can change it in the app.
SIGNUP_OPEN1 turns the sign-up link on at first start. Otherwise you turn it on in the app.
SESSION_HOURSHow long a sign-in lasts on a device. Default 168 (7 days).
DATA_DIRWhere claims and accounts are stored (default server/data). Use a persistent disk.
ADMIN_ONLY1 lets only administrators sign in, for example to pause the team.
TRUST_PROXY1 if a proxy on a public address sits in front of the server, so sign-in limits apply per person rather than per proxy. Render, nginx and Cloudflare on a private network are detected automatically.
COMPANY_EMAIL_DOMAINSOptional. Requires an address at your domain. Leave it unset if independent adjusters use personal email.
CERT_SIGNING_KEY, CERT_VOUCHER_SECRETTurn on Academy exams and signed certificates. Make them with node tools/academy-keys.js; use the same values on every workspace.
ACADEMY_WORKSPACEOptional. The workspace name vouchers are tied to. Default: the host name in APP_URL.
ACADEMY_DEMO1 for practice mode: exams need no voucher and certificates are marked PRACTICE. The start files use it.
APP_URL, TZ, MAIL_, SMTP_, GRAPH_*Optional email notifications, the same as the main Claimsfy. You can also set these in the app: 👤 → Email & notifications.
