Deployment failed via API

I did try to deploy:

const accountId = process.env.CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID;
const apiToken = process.env.CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN;

        const endpoint = `https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/${accountId}/pages/projects/${projectName}/deployments`;

        try {
            const response = await fetch(endpoint, {
                method: 'POST',
                headers: {
                    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
                    Authorization: `Bearer ${apiToken}`,
                },
            });

const accountId = process.env.CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID;
const apiToken = process.env.CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN;

        const endpoint = `https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/${accountId}/pages/projects/${projectName}/deployments`;

        try {
            const response = await fetch(endpoint, {
                method: 'POST',
                headers: {
                    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
                    Authorization: `Bearer ${apiToken}`,
                },
            });

` Got this error:

As the error states, you'd need a manifest We don't really recommend manual deployments, the deploy process isn't simple or documented. How come you aren't doing wrangler pages deploy?

I need to create the pages connected to git via remote (API) The pages project is already created earlier and I need to trigger a deployment when I create it, not after I deploy to my github but only by creating it. I need to auto deploy it on creation. Is this possible, because as of now I do first create it and then try to deploy it (like the code above).

Walshy•2mo ago

I see, that error is for non-Git connected projects For Git connected, that endpoint should indeed just trigger a new deploy Are you making these as Git projects?

NoOperationOP•2mo ago

Would you need two different API calls in order to trigger a deploy or can I do it with some parameter on init? Yes, these are all git repos

Walshy•2mo ago

2 API calls yeah, make project -> trigger deploy

NoOperationOP•2mo ago

Got you

Walshy•2mo ago

what's your API call to make the project

It is a Vite project with React.

Walshy•2mo ago

huh weird, that is a git project

NoOperationOP•2mo ago

NoOperationOP•2mo ago

This is what I see after the creation process

Walshy•2mo ago

And that shows as direct upload Interesting.. Oh You aren't passing source into projects.create()

NoOperationOP•2mo ago

oh really, let me check

NoOperationOP•2mo ago

Do you mean like this? It does not like source in there.

Walshy•2mo ago

bleh, the sdk may be incorrectly rejecting source..

Walshy•2mo ago

https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/resources/pages/subresources/projects/models/project/#(schema) the schema has it so i'm not sure why the sdk doesn't like it

NoOperationOP•2mo ago

Where is source?

Walshy•2mo ago

i linked to

NoOperationOP•2mo ago

There yep Any idea?

Walshy•2mo ago

for the error, best i can suggest is to use a manual fetch for now and avoid the sdk I'm not sure why the sdk is wrong, the schema looks fine
