# deployments Command - Medusa Cloud CLI Reference

In this guide, you'll learn how to inspect Cloud deployments and their build logs using the CLI.

## deployments list

List recent deployments for a project. By default, the command returns the 20 most recent deployments across all environments in the project, ordered by creation time (newest first).

### With Flags

```bash
mcloud deployments list --organization org_123 --project proj_123
```

### Using mcloud use

```bash
# Run once: mcloud use --organization org_123 --project proj_123

mcloud deployments list
```

### Options

|Option|Description|Required|Default|
|---|---|---|---|
|\`-o \<id>\`|The |Yes|Falls back to the organization in the |
|\`-p \<id-or-handle>\`|The |Yes|Falls back to the project in the |
|\`-e \<handle>\`|Filter deployments to a specific environment by |No|Falls back to the environment in the |
|\`--environment-type \<type>\`|Filter deployments by environment type. One of |No|-|
|\`--commit \<sha>\`|Filter deployments by Git commit SHA. Accepts a full SHA or a prefix.|No|-|
|\`--limit \<number>\`|Maximum number of deployments to return. Minimum: |No|\`20\`|
|\`--offset \<number>\`|The number of deployments to skip before retrieving the deployments. Useful for pagination.|No|\`0\`|
|\`--json\`|Print the result as JSON instead of formatted text.|No|\`false\`|

***

## deployments get

Retrieve a single deployment by its ID. Returns the deployment's status, commit details, environment, and timestamps.

This only retrieves the deployment's details. If you want to view its build logs, use [`mcloud deployments build-logs`](#deployments-build-logs) instead.

### With Flags

```bash
mcloud deployments get <deployment> --organization org_123 --project proj_123
```

### Using mcloud use

```bash
# Run once: mcloud use --organization org_123 --project proj_123

mcloud deployments get <deployment>
```

### Arguments

|Option|Description|Required|
|---|---|---|
|\`deployment\`|The ID of the deployment to retrieve.|Yes|

### Options

|Option|Description|Required|Default|
|---|---|---|---|
|\`-o \<id>\`|The |Yes|Falls back to the organization in the |
|\`-p \<id-or-handle>\`|The |Yes|Falls back to the project in the |
|\`--json\`|Print the result as JSON instead of formatted text.|No|\`false\`|

***

## deployments build-logs

Fetch the build logs for a deployment. Use this to debug build failures or to inspect the build output for a specific deployment.

To fetch the runtime logs for a deployment after it is live, use [`mcloud logs --deployment <id>`](https://docs.medusajs.com/cli/commands/logs#fetch-logs-for-a-specific-deployment) instead.

### With Flags

```bash
mcloud deployments build-logs <deployment> --organization org_123 --project proj_123
```

### Using mcloud use

```bash
# Run once: mcloud use --organization org_123 --project proj_123

mcloud deployments build-logs <deployment>
```

### Arguments

|Option|Description|Required|
|---|---|---|
|\`deployment\`|The ID of the deployment to retrieve the build logs for.|Yes|

### Options

|Option|Description|Required|Default|
|---|---|---|---|
|\`-o \<id>\`|The |Yes|Falls back to the organization in the |
|\`-p \<id-or-handle>\`|The |Yes|Falls back to the project in the |
|\`--type \<backend|storefront>\`|Which build log stream to read.|No|\`backend\`|
|\`--json\`|Print the result as JSON instead of formatted text.|No|\`false\`|

## Investigate a Failed Deployment

When a deployment fails, combine `deployments list`, `deployments get`, and `deployments build-logs` to find the deployment, inspect its status, and read the build output.

### Check Build Logs for a Failed Deployment

If the build itself failed (status `build-failed`), use `deployments build-logs` to read the build output:

```bash
# Assuming context is set with mcloud use. Otherwise, add the necessary flags to each command as shown in previous sections.

# Find the most recent build-failed deployment and store its ID in a variable
DEPLOYMENT_ID=$(
  mcloud deployments list --json \
    | jq -r '.[] | select(.backend_status == "build-failed") | .id' \
    | head -n 1
)

# Get deployment details
mcloud deployments get "$DEPLOYMENT_ID"

# Fetch its backend build logs
mcloud deployments build-logs "$DEPLOYMENT_ID"

# Or fetch the storefront build logs
mcloud deployments build-logs "$DEPLOYMENT_ID" --type storefront
```

### Check Runtime Logs for a Failed Deployment

If the build succeeded but the rollout failed (status `deployment-failed`), the build logs won't show the cause. Use [`mcloud logs`](https://docs.medusajs.com/cli/commands/logs) with `--deployment` to read the runtime logs for that specific deployment:

```bash
# Assuming context is set with mcloud use. Otherwise, add the necessary flags to each command as shown in previous sections.

# Find the most recent deployment-failed deployment and store its ID in a variable
DEPLOYMENT_ID=$(
  mcloud deployments list --json \
    | jq -r '.[] | select(.backend_status == "deployment-failed") | .id' \
    | head -n 1
)

# Get deployment details
mcloud deployments get "$DEPLOYMENT_ID"

# Fetch the runtime logs scoped to that deployment
mcloud logs --deployment "$DEPLOYMENT_ID" --limit 1000

# Or filter to error-level lines only
mcloud logs --deployment "$DEPLOYMENT_ID" --search error --limit 1000
```

To redeploy after fixing the underlying issue, use [`mcloud environments redeploy`](https://docs.medusajs.com/cli/commands/environments#environments-redeploy). To start a fresh build from the tracked branch, use [`mcloud environments trigger-build`](https://docs.medusajs.com/cli/commands/environments#environments-trigger-build).

## Backend and Storefront Statuses

When retrieving the details of a deployment, you can see the backend and storefront statuses through the `backend_status` and `storefront_status` fields when using the `--json` flag.

Possible backend and storefront statuses are:

|Status|Description|
|---|---|
|\`created\`|The deployment record exists but the build has not started yet.|
|\`building\`|The build is running. Use |
|\`built\`|The build finished successfully but the deployment to the environment hasn't started yet.|
|\`deploying\`|The built artifact is being rolled out to the environment.|
|\`deployed\`|The deployment is live and serving traffic. The current active deployment for an environment is marked |
|\`build-failed\`|The build step failed before any code was deployed. Use |
|\`deployment-failed\`|The build succeeded but the rollout to the environment failed. Use |
|\`timed-out\`|The build or deployment exceeded the maximum allowed duration and was terminated. This status applies to backend deployments only.|
|\`canceled\`|The build or deployment was canceled, usually because a newer deployment superseded it.|
|\`idle\`|The deployment is no longer the active one for its environment. Idle deployments can be re-activated with |
