Deploying via zip file using REST API issues

Thanks for that clarification @jnisenbom

Unfortunately, I’m still no further along with the Netlify API than I was yesterday. Either I’m doing something really wrong or the ZIP upload endpoint does not work. I’ve tried uploading ZIP files produced by:

I have tried uploading these via:

  • your API
    • via Zip upload
    • via file digest
  • your dashboard

I have done this with:

  • Content-Type set to application/x-www-form-urlencoded
  • Content-Type set to application/zip
  • binary stream
  • trying different filenames

But nothing actually publishes. I’m not given any errors to debug the issues. No time frames within which I can expect these sites to actually publish…or if they are to at all. Almost no feedback about what’s going on. Naturally, this is very frustrating. It’s a bit unexpected, though, considering all of the praise I’ve read on Netlify. Hopefully it’s just something wrong I’m doing. Would be glad to be shown what that is.
