Important Behavior
1. Channel Parameter
- If channels have been pre-defined, the channel parameter becomes mandatory.
2. Single URL Redirection
- If the response contains only one URL, the API will automatically redirect the request to download the build at that URL. This simplifies the process when only one option is available.
3. Flexible Responses Based on Parameters
The API responds dynamically based on the parameters you provide.
Example: Specific Parameters
GET /apps/latest?app_name=secondapp&channel=stable&platform=linux&arch=amd64&owner=admin
Returns a list of available builds:
{
"stable": {
"linux": {
"amd64": {
"deb": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.deb"
},
"rpm": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.rpm"
}
}
}
}
}
Example: With Package Specification
GET /apps/latest?app_name=secondapp&channel=stable&platform=linux&arch=amd64&package=deb&owner=admin
The API will redirect directly to the .deb package download URL:
https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.deb
Example: Omitting Platform and Arch
GET /apps/latest?app_name=secondapp&channel=stable&owner=admin
Returns all available builds under that channel:
{
"stable": {
"linux": {
"amd64": {
"deb": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.deb"
},
"rpm": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.rpm"
}
}
},
"darwin": {
"arm64": {
"dmg": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/darwin/arm64/secondapp-0.0.3.dmg"
}
},
"amd64": {
"pkg": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/darwin/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.pkg"
}
}
}
}
}
Notes
- The API provides all available builds depending on what is uploaded in the specified channel, platform, and architecture
- Use specific parameters to narrow down results and get direct download URLs
- The
owner
parameter is required for proper access control - Package types are automatically detected based on available files
