--- title: Create a Fly Postgres Cluster layout: framework_docs order: 2 objective: Create a new Fly Postgres cluster. toc: false --- <%= partial "/docs/partials/postgres/pg-create" %> Connect to postgres Any app within the TestOrg organization can connect to this Postgres using the above connection string Now that you've set up Postgres, here's what you need to understand: https://fly.io/docs/postgres/getting-started/what-you-should-know/ ``` After answering all the prompts, you'll see a message saying that the cluster is being created. Take heed of the reminder to save your password in a safe place! Once deployment is complete, you'll be looking to connect an app to your new Postgres cluster. There's a good chance you'll want to [attach a Fly app](/docs/postgres/managing/attach-detach) next. Before going any further, a note: the automated Postgres creation process doesn't generate a `fly.toml` file in the working directory. This means that when you use `flyctl` commands that would otherwise look for an app name in `fly.toml`, you'll have to specify the app, like so: ```cmd flyctl <command> -a <postgres-app-name> ```
