services / Google Cloud / Google App Engine version

A version is a specific set of source code and configuration files that are deployed to a service.

Resources for a version, including source code, must first be uploaded to a Cloud Storage bucket.


appengine.​versions.​create

Creating a version will deploy the provided source code to App Engine. This does not route any external traffic to the new version, but allows for resource hijacking.
