On-Premise Option
Using the CLI Without the Dashboard
For organizations with strict security requirements, the Serverless Framework CLI can operate as a fully on-premise tool with minimal external connectivity.
Source Available for Security Review
The Serverless Framework CLI is source available, allowing your security team to review the complete codebase. Inspect exactly what runs in your environment and verify our security practices firsthand.
View source on GitHub →
The Serverless Framework CLI is locally installed software that, by default, does not interact with Serverless, Inc. servers except for limited network requests for license compliance. The optional Serverless Framework Dashboard provides additional features like Observability and Secrets Management, but it is not required.
Many enterprises rely exclusively on the Serverless Framework CLI for mission-critical workloads. As a locally executed tool, the CLI offers full control and customization, aligning well with strict corporate security and compliance requirements.
License Keys
If your organization wants to use only the CLI and not the Dashboard, License Keys are the solution. Using License Keys disables Dashboard access by default, ensuring the CLI operates solely as an on-premise product.
Simple Identifiers
License Keys validate and track subscription usage only; no access control or permissions.
Disables Dashboard
Eliminates all Dashboard requests except License Key validation and telemetry.
No Expiration
Keys don't expire, avoiding service disruption while still allowing rotation as a best practice.
Flexible Distribution
Create and distribute as many keys as needed, by company, team, app, or developer.

Network Requests
When not used with the Dashboard, the CLI makes the following network requests to Serverless, Inc. backend services:
Check Version
Checks for the latest version of the CLI.
https://install.serverless.com/versions.json
Update Version
Downloads updates when required.
https://install.serverless.com/archives/*
Validate License
Validates the License Key during initialization.
https://core.serverless.com/api/bff
Send Telemetry
Sends minimal usage data for license compliance.
https://core.serverless.com/api/events/*
License Telemetry
The CLI collects minimal telemetry to measure usage for subscription billing. This data uniquely identifies each Service Instance (a deployed serverless.yml in a specific Stage and Region):
Data Property	Description
License Key	Used to attribute usage to the correct organization & subscription.
Service Name	The "service" value in the serverless.yml configuration file.
Region Name	The AWS region where the application is being deployed.
Stage Name	The environment (e.g., "production", "development", "testing").
AWS Account ID	The unique identifier of the AWS account for deployment.
AWS CloudFormation Stack ID	The unique identifier of the CloudFormation Stack managed by the CLI.
