Does Bolt integrate with Netlify?
Partially — optional deploy target with a one-way switch
Partially. Bolt can deploy to Netlify via a built-in OAuth connector, but Bolt's own hosting is the default and Netlify is an optional alternative. Switching is one-way: once a project is published to Bolt hosting you cannot move it to Netlify without making a fresh copy. URL customization is limited to Teams plans.
| Integration method | Native (built-in connector) — Bolt has a built-in Netlify connector, but Bolt's own hosting is the default. Netlify is an optional alternative deploy destination. You connect your Netlify account via OAuth — no middleware (Zapier, Make, MCP) required. Bolt's "Publish" button then deploys to Netlify. |
|---|---|
| Sync direction | One-way deploy: Bolt pushes your built app to Netlify when you publish. Switching hosting providers is restricted — once you publish to Bolt hosting you cannot later switch that project to Netlify. |
| Plan required | A Netlify account is required (its free tier works). On the Bolt side, customizing the auto-generated netlify.app URL is limited to Teams plans; individual plans cannot edit it. |
| Setup time | ~10 minutes unverified estimate |
How to connect Bolt to Netlify
- Create a Netlify account if you do not have one.
- In Bolt, click the gear icon, "All project settings", then "Applications" and click "Connect" in the Netlify section; complete the Netlify OAuth login.
- Open "All project settings" and go to "Domains & Hosting".
- Use the dropdown to select "Netlify" as the hosting provider, then close settings.
- Click "Publish" in the top-right corner, then confirm with the second "Publish" button; deployment finishes in about a minute.
Known friction points
- Switching is one-way: if you have already published a project to Bolt hosting, you cannot switch it to Netlify — you must create a new, unpublished copy of the project. [source]
- Editing the auto-generated netlify.app URL is restricted to Teams plans; individual-plan users cannot customize the domain from inside Bolt. [source]
