+description: Steps to set up your own Snowbridge message relayers.
+---
+
+# Run Relayers
+
+## AWS Account
+
+The first thing you will need is an AWS account. [Register](https://signin.aws.amazon.com/signup?request\_type=register) if you do not have an account yet.
+
+## Clone infra Repo
+
+Clone the infrastructure repository:
+
+```sh
+git clone https://github.com/Snowfork/snowbrige-relayers-infra.git
+```
+
+## Install Ansible & dependencies
+
+Install Ansible and its dependencies:
+
+```sh
+brew install pipx
+pipx install --include-deps ansible boto3 botocore
+pipx ensurepath
+```
+
+## Create AWS Key Pair
+
+On the AWS console, under the EC2 section, create an ED25519 key pair called `snowbridge-relayers-key`.
+
+### Set AWS Env variables
+
+In the `snowbridge-relayers-infra` directory, create a .envrc file with the following values:
+
+```
+export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=
+export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=
+export AWS_ACCOUNT_ID=
+export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=eu-central-1
+```
+
+Add your AWS access key ID, secret access key and account ID.
+
+## Create EC2 instance
+
+Run command from inside the `snowbridge-relayers-infra` directory:
+
+`ansible-playbook -i inventory/message-relayers/aws_ec2.yml infra.yml`
+
+It will create an EC2 instance to run the relayers on.
+
+## Add Secrets
+
+Add the following plaintext secrets to AWS secrets manager:
+
+```
+snowbridge/dwellir-eth-node-api-key
+snowbridge/dwellir-polkadot-node-api-key
+snowbridge/chainalysis-api-key
+snowbridge/asset-hub-ethereum-relay
+snowbridge/asset-hub-parachain-relay
+```
+
+### Lodestar, Polkadot Nodes & Chainalysis Key
+
+Ask for API keys for `dwellir-eth-node-api-key`, `dwellir-polkadot-node-api-key` and `chainalysis-api-key` in Snowbridge Relayer Telegram group: [https://t.me/+I8Iel-Eaxcw3NjU0](https://t.me/+I8Iel-Eaxcw3NjU0)
+
+### Ethereum Relay Key
+
+The `asset-hub-ethereum-relay` is a private key for an prefunded account on Polkadot BridgeHub. To retrieve the private key from an account on Polkadot with seedphrase "cat cow milk...", use [subkey](https://docs.substrate.io/reference/command-line-tools/subkey/):
+
+```
+./target/release/subkey inspect "cat cow milk..."
+```
+
+Use the secret seed hash as the `snowbridge/asset-hub-ethereum-relay` secret.
+
+### Parachain Relay Key
+
+The `asset-hub-parachain-relay` is a private key for a funded account on Ethereum.
+
+## Install Relayers
+
+Once you have added all the secrets, you can deploy your relayers:
+
+```
+ssh-agent bash
+ssh-add /path/to/snowbridge-relayers-key.pem
+ansible-playbook -i inventory/message-relayers/aws_ec2.yml relayers.yml
+```
+
+Once it has completed, ssh into your instance.
+
+```
+ssh -i message-relayers-key.pem [email protected]
+```
+
+Check that you see no relayer errors for each relayer:
+
+```
+sudo journalctl -fu snowbridge-asset-hub-ethereum-relay --since today
+sudo journalctl -fu snowbridge-asset-hub-parachain-relay --since today
+```
+
+### Monitoring
+
+TODO
