Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get started with CellCMS?
Sign up for a free CellCMS account to spin up a project in under a minute. You get a hosted Content Studio, managed API, and a ready-to-use PostgreSQL-backed dataset — no infrastructure required.
Can I migrate from Sanity to CellCMS?
Yes! CellCMS is designed as a drop-in Sanity replacement. Export your Sanity dataset as NDJSON, import it into CellCMS, and swap @sanity/client for @cellcms/client. Your schemas and GROQ queries work with minimal changes.
What databases does CellCMS support?
CellCMS uses PostgreSQL with JSONB for document storage. We recommend PostgreSQL 15 or later. The database stores all documents, assets metadata, users, and configuration.
Is CellCMS free to use?
CellCMS offers a generous free tier for individual projects. For teams and larger projects, we offer Pro and Enterprise plans with increased limits, priority support, and advanced features.
How does real-time collaboration work?
CellCMS uses WebSocket connections for real-time features. You can see who's editing which documents (presence indicators), receive live updates when content changes, and subscribe to GROQ queries for instant notifications.
Can I use CellCMS with Next.js?
Absolutely. Install @cellcms/client in your Next.js project, configure it with your API URL and token, and use client.fetch() with GROQ queries in getStaticProps, getServerSideProps, or Server Components.
How do I handle image optimization?
CellCMS transforms images on-the-fly using Sharp. Add query parameters to any asset URL (w, h, fit, format, q, blur, dpr) to get optimized versions. Transformed images are cached automatically.
What happens if I exceed my plan limits?
You'll receive a notification when approaching your limits. If you exceed them, write operations (creating documents, uploading assets) will return a 402 response suggesting an upgrade. Read operations continue to work normally.
