Docs/Auto-deploy on push

Auto-deploy on push

Turn on Auto-deploy so HostKB builds and deploys when you push to the branch linked to your application.

Only available for Git Repository sources.

Create an application with source type Git Repository.
Select the provider, repository, and branch.
Leave Auto-deploy on push enabled if you want pushes to that branch to start builds (and deploy) for you.

Update the setting from the application page.

A build starts for the selected branch (watch Builds for live logs).
When the build succeeds, deployment proceeds according to auto-deploy behavior.
You can still open Deployments and click Deploy manually when you change env vars or need a refresh without a new commit.
If a build fails, fix the repo or config, push again (or start a build from the UI), then verify logs.
