App Platform is a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering from DigitalOcean that allowsdevelopers to publish code directly to DigitalOcean servers without worrying about theunderlying infrastructure.Most API operations are centered around a few core object types. Following are thedefinitions of these types.

This is an independent, third-party profile of Digital Ocean Apps API, published by
API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or
support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above.
Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site,
developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use.
Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.
The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's
public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications,

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and
you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored
