Manage Postgres and Key Value instances using the Render CLI

You (and your agents) can now create, update, delete, suspend, and resume Render Postgres and Key Value instances using version 2.21.0 or later of the Render CLI.

Use render kv commands to manage Key Value instances:

render kv create \
  --name jobs-cache-staging \
  --region oregon \
  --plan starter \
  --memory-policy queue \
  --confirm

Use render pg commands to manage Postgres databases:

render pg create \
  --name app-db-staging \
  --region oregon \
  --plan basic_256mb \
  --version 17 \
  --confirm

Run render kv --help or render pg --help for a list of supported commands, or see the full generated command reference.

With these additions, the Render CLI now provides management capabilities for every Render service type.

Get started with the Render CLI in the docs.
