Run FastGPT 4810 Administrative Initialization Tasks

This article records configuration and changes from a historical FastGPT release. Use it to understand that release, and consult the release notes for your installed and target versions before applying dependencies, configuration, or migration steps.

Initialization Purpose for FastGPT 4810

This document covers the required administrative initialization step for self-hosted FastGPT deployments at version 4810. The initialization process executes two critical system setup actions: it initializes publish record version markers, and initializes invoice records. These steps ensure the FastGPT 4810 release has properly configured core system data structures.

Required Input Values

To run the initialization command, you must have two specific values from your FastGPT environment:

1. rootkey: The administrative key stored in your FastGPT environment variables. This key authenticates requests to the /api/admin endpoint.
2. {{host}}: Your public FastGPT domain name, formatted with the appropriate protocol (e.g., https://your-fastgpt-domain.com). Do not add trailing slashes or additional path segments to this value.

Execution Command

Use a terminal with curl installed to send the required HTTP POST request. Replace the placeholder values exactly as specified, then run the following command:

curl --location --request POST 'https://{{host}}/api/admin/initv4810' \
--header 'rootkey: {{rootkey}}' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json'

Each component of the command serves a specific function:

• The --location flag allows the request to follow any server-side redirects.
• The POST HTTP method targets the /api/admin/initv4810 administrative initialization endpoint.
• The rootkey header authenticates the request using your environment's administrative key.
• The Content-Type: application/json header specifies the required request content type, even though this endpoint does not accept a request body.

Successful Execution Confirmation

When the command runs successfully, the FastGPT server will complete the two predefined initialization tasks. The endpoint does not return a visible success message in the terminal. If the request fails, the server will return a structured JSON error response with details about the issue.
