This guide walks through making your first deployment to a new device — from selecting the device on the Devices page to deploying its initial configuration.

Select a device

To create a device’s initial deployment, navigate to the Devices page.

Only devices that been provisioned, but never deployed to, are candidates for an initial deployment. You can identify these devices by their Release column. If their release column displays a placeholder button of Set instead of a release version (i.e. v1.0.0, v1.1.0, etc.), then the device is a candidate for an initial deployment. Continue by clicking into the device you want to initialize.

Set the release

Since the device doesn’t have a current release, a dialog will appear prompting you to select a release. The selected release will be used to create the device’s initial deployment.

If no releases are shown, you will need to create a release before continuing.

Edit configs

Once the release is set, the editor opens in draft mode. Since this is the first deployment, it automatically fills with default values from your release’s config schemas.

Deploy

Once you are satisfied with the configuration, click the Deploy button in the controls panel header to open the deploy dialog.
