Leave the platform version preselected as 3.4.8 (Recommended).
For Application code, select Upload your code.
Download the
Dockerrun.aws.jsonfile from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mattermost/mattermost-docker-preview/master/Dockerrun.aws.json.Set a unique Version Label, choose Local File, then select Choose file button to browse for the downloaded file in the previous step. You should see a File successfully uploaded message.
Select Create Application. It may take a few minutes for Beanstalk to launch your environment. If the launch is successful, you will see a see a large green checkmark and the Health status displayed in green.
Test your environment by selecting the domain link next to your application name at the top of the dashboard. Alternatively, enter the domain into your browser in the form of
http://<your-ebs-application-url>.elasticbeanstalk.com. You can also map your own domain if you prefer. When everything is working correctly, the domain navigates you to the Mattermost Sign In page. Enjoy exploring Mattermost!
