Deployment Architecture

Is there a REST API to create a deployment app on a deployment server?

Hi,

Are there REST APIs to:
1. Create a deployment app on a deployment server
2. Create some conf files in that app to be auto-deployed on the deployment clients

I have already looked at the REST API documentation, but couldn't find such methods. I have tried the methods in the Deployment Endpoint REST API manual, but seems like the app-creation API is not there.

Thanks

Thanks, but this requires you to use the UI. I wanted to use the REST API to do it.
