Heroku REST API

Cloud platform API for deploying and managing applications

Heroku is a cloud platform that enables developers to build, run, and operate applications entirely in the cloud. The Heroku Platform API allows programmatic access to manage apps, dynos, add-ons, builds, releases, and other platform resources. Developers use this API to automate deployments, scale applications, manage configurations, and integrate Heroku into their CI/CD pipelines.
