wasmCloud Application Deployment Manager (wadm) API

wadm provides a declarative application deployment API for wasmCloud. Applications are defined as YAML manifests specifying components, capability providers, and their links. wadm manages the desired state of applications across the lattice, handling scaling, updates, and self-healing through reconciliation loops using the Open Application Model format.

Documentation Provider Profile APIs.io AsyncAPI GitHub

wasmCloud Application Deployment Manager (wadm) API is one of 5 APIs that wasmCloud publishes on the APIs.io network, described by an AsyncAPI event-driven specification.

This API exposes 2 JSON Schema definitions.

Tagged areas include Application Management, Declarative, Deployment, and OAM. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, an API reference, a GitHub repository, an AsyncAPI specification, and 2 JSON Schemas.

This event API exposes 14 operations across 7 channels, and defines 24 schemas. It is described by AsyncAPI 2.6.0, at version 1.0.0.

The API connects through a single server, nats://localhost:4222 (nats).

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of wasmCloud Application Deployment Manager (wadm) 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, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

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 zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
