Deploy API – Version 1

Last modified: July 10, 2025

Introduction

The Deploy API allows you to manage application environments in Mendix Cloud. You can retrieve the status of, and start and stop, applications. You can also configure new model versions and deploy them to application environments. To create and manage deployment packages, you also need the Build API. For backup-related actions, refer to the Backups API.

You can use webhooks to trigger CI/CD pipelines that use this API. These are described in Webhooks.

This image provides a domain model representation of the concepts discussed below and how these are related:

Authentication

The Deploy API v1 requires authentication via API keys that are bound to your Mendix account.

Obtaining an API Key

To obtain a Mendix API key, follow the instructions in the API Keys section of Mendix Profile.

Using Authentication Headers

Use the following request headers to authenticate an API call:

  • Mendix-Username – the login name of the requesting user with the required privileges in the Mendix Platform
  • Mendix-ApiKey – the API key of this user

Configuring Permissions

Because APIs are designed for automated systems, the Deploy API does not require two-factor authentication, which is normally required to make changes to production environments. This is a potential security risk. Therefore, API access must be explicitly allowed for team members who want to use the Deploy API.

To perform an action via the Deploy API, such as transporting a new deployment package, you need API Rights and Transport Rights permissions. This can be configured from the Permissions tab of your app's Environments page.
