Authentication

Send an API key as a bearer token. The key must carry the hosting.deploy.manage permission; a key without it is refused with 403, not 404.

This endpoint takes no organisation id. Your key already identifies the organisation it belongs to, and the response is scoped to it.

Try it

Replace anything in angle brackets with your own values, and the key placeholder with a key from your dashboard.

curl -X POST https://api.zinndigital.com/v1/sites/{siteId}/app/releases/{release}/activate \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…"

Signed in? The API console in your dashboard fills in your real organisation id and your own key, and runs the request against the live API so you can see the actual response. Open this endpoint in the API console

Details

No fetch, no dependency install and no build: the release's directory is already complete, so this moves the live link and restarts the application. A release no longer on the server answers 503 with a sentence saying so; redeploy that commit instead. Requires hosting.deploy.manage.
