Changelog

Since our last update we've shipped a compliance-grade audit log, finer control over when and how deployments run, and a batch of new public API endpoints.

• Audit Log: A complete, exportable record of account, security, and deployment activity across your account — built for SOC-2 style review and available on eligible plans. https://www.deployhq.com/support/api/audit-log

• Commit Message Deployment Commands: Control deployments straight from your commit messages — skip a deploy, force one, or target specific behaviour with simple tags, no dashboard trip required. https://www.deployhq.com/support/deployments/automatic-deployments/commit-message-deployment-commands

• Custom AI Deployment Overview Instructions: Tailor the AI-generated summary per project — tell it what to emphasise so the overview matches how your team reads a release. https://www.deployhq.com/support/deployments/ai-deployment-overviews

• Change a Server's Protocol: Switch an existing server to a compatible protocol in place, without deleting and recreating it or losing your configuration. https://www.deployhq.com/support/servers/changing-a-server-protocol

• New Public API Endpoints: Pull your billing and infrastructure data programmatically — an Invoices API (list + per-invoice PDF), a Plans & Prices API, and a Deployment IP Ranges API for allowlisting. https://www.deployhq.com/support/api/invoices-api · https://www.deployhq.com/support/api/packages-api · https://www.deployhq.com/support/api/ip-ranges-api

A batch focused on organizing your work and tightening control over deployments.

• Project Folders: Group your projects into folders, with favourites floating to the top so your most-used projects are always one click away. https://www.deployhq.com/support/projects/organising-projects-into-folders

• Deployment Availability Windows: Restrict when deployments are allowed to run, so nothing ships outside the hours you choose. https://www.deployhq.com/support/managing-your-account/account-configuration/deployment-availability

• Global SSH Commands: Define SSH commands once at the account level and reuse them across every project. https://www.deployhq.com/support/api/global-ssh-commands

• Read-Only API Keys: Issue API keys scoped to read-only access — ideal for dashboards, reporting, and integrations that should never make changes. https://www.deployhq.com/support/api/api-keys

• Webhook Signature Verification: Opt in to signed auto-deploy webhook payloads so you can verify that requests genuinely came from DeployHQ. https://www.deployhq.com/support/deployments/automatic-deployments/github-webhook

Hosting takes center stage this release — Static Hosting lands alongside Managed VPS, both free during their beta period, with a handful of supporting improvements Account Settings, Deployment Checks, and the CLI.

• Static Hosting (Beta): Deploy static sites directly on DeployHQ infrastructure — no SSH keys, no FTP credentials, just point a project at it and ship. Pre-fills build commands and subdirectory from your repo during setup. More info.

• Free Managed Hosting While in Beta: Managed VPS and Static Hosting are both free to use throughout the beta period — no charges, no add-on fees. More info.

• Deployment Checks: Secret Scanning + Error Monitoring: Two new check types in the Beta — TruffleHog scans your build for leaked credentials, and post-deploy checks watch Sentry, BugSink, Honeybadger, and Bugsnag for fresh errors after a release. HTTP checks can now scope to specific servers as well. More info.

• Account-Wide AI Disable: A single account setting to turn off every AI-powered feature across the product. More info.

• CLI Improvements: dhq now manages deployment checks end-to-end and exposes --table, --quiet, and --json=false output modes for scripting. More info.
