Step 6: Valkey Setup

Valkey is a Redis-compatible cache used by Immich as a message broker.

Quicklink to add a new Docker container (paste into your browser while logged into Unraid):

http://<your-unraid-ip>/Docker/AddContainer

1. Go to the tab →
2. Select the immich-valkey template
3. Configure:
   • Network: immich_internal
   • All other defaults are fine
4. Hit to start the container.

That's it — Valkey needs no special configuration for Immich.

Note

You don't need to set a port. See FAQ.
