+# How to build Docker image
+
+## Senzing V4 Beta instructions
+
+1. Email [[email protected]] to request participation in Senzing V4 Beta.
+1. Once you are signed up, you’ll get an email with a [URL for a Debian-based installation].
+   You’ll use values this URL to create environment variables.
+1. The first part of the URL, up to the final forward-slash,
+   is the SENZING_APT_REPOSITORY_URL value.
+   It starts with `https://senzing-` and ends with `.com`.
+   It needs to be the value of the `SENZING_APT_REPOSITORY_URL` environment variable.
+   Example:
+
+    ```console
+    export SENZING_APT_REPOSITORY_URL="https://senzing-xxxxxxxx.com"
+    ```
+
+1. The second part of the URL, everything after the final forward-slash,
+   is the SENZING_APT_REPOSITORY_NAME value.
+   It starts with `senzing` and ends with `.deb`.
+   It needs to be the value of the `SENZING_APT_REPOSITORY_NAME` environment variable.
+
+   Example:
+
+    ```console
+    export SENZING_APT_REPOSITORY_NAME="senzingxxxx-xxxxxxxx.deb"
+    ```
+
+1. Build the first Docker image which contains the Senzing binaries.
+
+    ```console
+    docker build --build-arg SENZING_APT_REPOSITORY_NAME --build-arg SENZING_APT_REPOSITORY_URL --tag senzing/senzingsdk-runtime-beta:latest https://github.com/senzing/senzingsdk-runtime.git#main
+    ```
+
+1. Build the second Docker image which adds the gRPC server to the Senzing binaries.
+
+    ```console
+    docker build --tag senzing/serve-grpc:latest https://github.com/senzing-garage/serve-grpc.git#main
+    ```
