Publish
The only supported publishing path at this time is pulling code from an existing public GitHub repository.
Publish
- Log In to Connect Cloud. This redirects you to your Content page.
- Click the Publish button in the upper right of the screen.
- Select the content type you want to deploy.
- Select your Repository: Use the autocomplete functionality to choose which of your public GitHub repositories you want to publish content from. You can also enter a link to any public GitHub repository.
- Confirm the Branch.
- Select your Primary File: The main file for your application (e.g., app.py) or document (e.g., index.qmd).
Publish
- Click Next.
- Select a Python Version, if needed: Python version that you want to deploy with.
- Set Advanced settings, if applicable
- Click Publish.
Note
Python deployments require a requirements.txt dependency file to be included in the repository.
R deployments require a manifest.json dependency file.
See Supported Content Types for more information.
A successful publish results in a URL for your application or document that is accessible by anyone on the web.
