Kortix Apps are provider-neutral serverless deployments. An App owns one stable URL. Each deployment is immutable. Failed deployments do not replace active traffic.

Apps is experimental and off by default. Enable Apps for the selected project under Project Settings → Experimental. The API returns 404, and the CLI and web surfaces stay hidden, while the feature is disabled.

const apps = kortix.project(projectId).apps;
const app = await apps.create({ slug: 'docs', name: 'Docs' });
const artifact = await apps.artifacts.uploadArchive(tarGzBytes);
const deployment = await apps.deployments.create(app.app_id, {
  artifact_id: artifact.artifact_id,
  source: { kind: 'static', spa: true },
});
console.log(app.url, deployment.status);

For OCI images, register the immutable image reference and declare the process command and public target port:

const registered = await apps.artifacts.register({
  kind: 'oci_image',
  image: 'ghcr.io/acme/service:2026-08-07',
});
await apps.deployments.create(app.app_id, {
  artifact_id: registered.artifact.artifact_id,
  source: {
    kind: 'oci_image',
    image: 'ghcr.io/acme/service:2026-08-07',
    command: ['node', 'server.js'],
    port: 3000,
    readiness_path: '/health',
  },
});

Use apps.deployments.get, apps.deployments.logs, apps.rollback, apps.start, apps.stop, and apps.remove for the full lifecycle. Hosting provider selection remains a server policy unless an operator explicitly supplies the optional deployment preference.
