# Promote to environment

> Promotes the source environment's current content + code into this environment. Runs the unified deployment in-process: it writes the env-keyed `template_snapshot`, atomically commits the env pointer, AND dispatches the managed code build — this CLOSES the env-pin → code-deploy gap (a promote now deploys code, not just content). Returns 202 with the created `deployment` row; the snapshot + env-pointer commit are already done, while the build runs asynchronously — poll `GET /v1/deployments/{deployment_id}` to watch `code_status` reach `deployed`. The default environment cannot be a promote target.

    The AgentMark Gateway API lets you ingest traces, create scores, and
    retrieve prompt templates programmatically.


    Most developers should use the [AgentMark SDK](/introduction/overview) for
    integration.

    The REST API is for cases where you need direct HTTP access or are building
    a custom integration.


    Versioning: every endpoint is prefixed with `/v1/`. Breaking changes ship
    under a new version prefix (`/v2/`, etc.) with a 90-day-minimum deprecation
    window — see [API versioning & stability](/api-reference/versioning) for the
    full policy on what constitutes a breaking vs. additive change.
