{metadata.title}

The Redis Workflow Engine Module uses Redis to track workflow executions and handle their subscribers. In production, it's recommended to use this module.

<Note title="Using Cloud?">

Our Cloud offering automatically provisions a Redis instance and configures the Redis Workflow Engine Module for you. Learn more in the Redis Cloud documentation.

</Note>

Register the Redis Workflow Engine Module

<Prerequisites items={[ { text: "Redis installed and Redis server running", link: "https://redis.io/docs/getting-started/installation/" } ]} />

Add the module into the modules property of the exported object in medusa-config.ts:

export const highlights = [ ["8", "redisUrl", "The Redis connection URL."] ]

ts
module.exports = defineConfig({
  // ...
  modules: [
    {
      resolve: "@medusajs/medusa/workflow-engine-redis",
      options: {
        redis: {
          redisUrl: process.env.WE_REDIS_URL,
          // ...other Redis options
        },
      },
    },
  ],
})
