The Deployments API is official

We’re happy to announce that the Deployments API is officially part of GitHub API v3. We now consider it stable for production use.

Thanks to everyone who provided feedback during the preview period. We got some great feedback, and hope this feature helps you build the tools you need to make GitHub the best place to ship exactly the way you want.

Preview media type no longer needed

If you used the Deployments API during the preview period, you needed to provide a custom media type in the Accept header:

application/vnd.github.cannonball-preview+json

Now that the preview period has ended, you no longer need to pass this custom media type.

Instead, we recommend that you specify v3 as the version in the Accept header:

application/vnd.github.v3+json

Feedback

We’ll never be done listening to you! As always, please don’t hesitate to share your feedback.
