Vercel

Learn how to deploy your Makeswift application to Vercel.

This guide uses the Vercel dashboard to deploy your Makeswift application. Alternatively, you can use the Vercel CLI.

Prerequisites

You’ll need a Makeswift site. If you don’t already have one, you can follow the developer quickstart or installation guide to get started. You’ll also need:

• A Git repository (full list of Vercel supported Git providers)
• Vercel account (sign up)

Create new project in Vercel

Within the Vercel dashboard, choose Add New… > Project from the top right of the Overview page.

Connect to Git repo

In the Import Git Repository section, choose your Git repository. If you haven’t already, you may need to authorize Vercel to have the correct access to your Git provider.

Project settings

Vercel will automatically attempt to generate the correct settings for your project. Ensure these settings match your project setup.

Environment variables

You’ll need to include your Makeswift API key which you can find in the Makeswift Visual Builder under Settings > Host.

Add your API key to the Environment Variables section with a key of MAKESWIFT_SITE_API_KEY.

Deploy

After you finished configuring your settings, click the Deploy button. Vercel will build and deploy your Makeswift application. After the build has finished, you should see a success message with a link to your deployed site.
