The Apps API is in beta. Its endpoints and responses may change.
These endpoints control where an app is served. Look at your work in progress with a preview, publish it to production, read the public URL, and take it offline again.

​
Preview and published

An app has two addresses, and they show different things.
  • Get preview URL serves the app as it currently stands in the app editor, including changes that haven’t been published. The preview runs in a sandbox that shuts down when it goes unused, so the first call after a quiet period takes noticeably longer.
  • Get published URL returns the public address of the live app. An app that has never been published, or that was unpublished, has none.

​
Publishing

Deploy an app publishes the app’s current version by default. To publish a saved version instead, pass its ID. Find versions with List checkpoints. To publish a site you built yourself, use Deploy a prebuilt site. Unpublish app takes the app offline. Visitors see an offline notice, and the app’s data, settings, and custom domains stay as they are.
