Deploy on Akash programmatically using the Console API. It lets you create and manage deployments with Console-managed wallets, so you do not have to manage private keys.
Base URL: https://console-api.akash.network
Authentication: pass your API key in every request with x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY. A key acts in the account it was created in, your personal account or one of your teams, and can be limited to one project. See Organizations and Projects.
Features
- Create and manage deployments via plain HTTP with no blockchain client or SDK required.
- Receive bids from providers and accept them by creating a lease in a single API call.
- Fund deployments with a credit card; no AKT wallet or crypto exchange needed.
- Authenticate with an API key that acts in your personal account or in one of your teams, optionally limited to one project.
- Monitor deployments with list, get, and settings endpoints.
- Work as a team: manage members, invitations, projects and budgets, and deploy into a project.
How it works
- Create a deployment: POST your SDL (deployment manifest) to
/v1/deployments. - Accept a bid: wait around 30 seconds, GET bids from
/v1/bids?dseq=..., then POST to/v1/leasesto accept one. - Manage: update the SDL, or DELETE to close the deployment. Funding is automatic. Console keeps the deployment running from the credits of the account it runs in (yours, or your team’s) and returns whatever it did not spend when you close it.
