# Lindy Deploy Integration

## Overview

Lindy agents run on Lindy's managed infrastructure. Deployment focuses on your
**integration layer**: webhook receivers, callback handlers, and application code
that Lindy agents interact with via HTTP Request actions and webhook triggers.

## Prerequisites

- Lindy agents configured and tested
- Application with webhook receiver endpoints
- Deployment platform (Vercel, Railway, Docker, AWS, GCP)
- Lindy API key and webhook secrets

## Instructions

### Step 1: Prepare Application for Deployment

```typescript
// src/server.ts — Production-ready Lindy webhook receiver
import express from 'express';
import helmet from 'helmet';

const app = express();
app.use(helmet());
app.use(express.json({ limit: '1mb' }));

// Health check for load balancer
app.get('/health', (req, res) => {
  res.json({
    status: 'ok',
    timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
    version: process.env.APP_VERSION || 'unknown',
  });
});

// Lindy webhook receiver with auth verification
app.post('/lindy/callback', (req, res) => {
  const auth = req.headers.authorization;
  if (auth !== `Bearer ${process.env.LINDY_CALLBACK_SECRET}`) {
    return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Unauthorized' });
  }

  // Respond immediately, process async
  res.json({ received: true });

  // Async processing
  processWebhook(req.body).catch(err => {
    console.error('Webhook processing error:', err);
  });
});

async function processWebhook(payload: any) {
  const { taskId, status, result } = payload;
  // Your business logic here
  console.log(`Task ${taskId}: ${status}`, result);
}

const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000;
app.listen(PORT, () => console.log(`Listening on :${PORT}`));
```

### Step 2: Docker Deployment

```dockerfile
# Dockerfile
FROM node:20-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm ci --production
COPY dist/ ./dist/
EXPOSE 3000
ENV NODE_ENV=production
HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=3s \
  CMD wget -qO- http://localhost:3000/health || exit 1
CMD ["node", "dist/server.js"]
```

```bash
# Build and run
docker build -t lindy-integration .
docker run -d \
  -p 3000:3000 \
  -e LINDY_CALLBACK_SECRET="$LINDY_CALLBACK_SECRET" \
  --name lindy-app \
  lindy-integration
```

### Step 3: Vercel Deployment

```bash
# Install Vercel CLI
npm i -g vercel

# Set secrets
vercel secrets add lindy-callback-secret "$LINDY_CALLBACK_SECRET"

# Deploy
vercel --prod
```

```json
// vercel.json
{
  "env": {
    "LINDY_CALLBACK_SECRET": "@lindy-callback-secret"
  }
}
```

### Step 4: Update Lindy Agent Webhook URLs

After deployment, update all Lindy agents with production URLs:

1. In Lindy dashboard, open each agent with a webhook trigger
2. Navigate to the **HTTP Request** action (if agent calls your API)
3. Update URL from dev/staging to production:

   ```
   OLD: https://abc123.ngrok.io/lindy/callback
   NEW: https://api.yourapp.com/lindy/callback
   ```

4. For webhook triggers, callers need the Lindy-generated URL (unchanged)
5. Test with a sample webhook to verify end-to-end

### Step 5: Post-Deploy Verification

```bash
#!/bin/bash
echo "=== Post-Deploy Verification ==="

PROD_URL="https://api.yourapp.com"

# Health check
echo "[1/3] Health check..."
curl -sf "$PROD_URL/health" | jq .

# Webhook endpoint reachable
echo "[2/3] Webhook endpoint..."
STATUS=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" \
  -X POST "$PROD_URL/lindy/callback" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LINDY_CALLBACK_SECRET" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"test": true}')
echo "Webhook endpoint: HTTP $STATUS (expect 200)"

# Trigger a test agent run
echo "[3/3] Agent trigger test..."
curl -s -X POST "https://public.lindy.ai/api/v1/webhooks/YOUR_ID" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LINDY_TRIGGER_SECRET" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"event": "deploy.verify", "env": "production"}'
echo "Agent triggered — check Tasks tab in Lindy dashboard"
```

### Step 6: Rollback Plan

```bash
# If deployment fails, rollback:
# Vercel
vercel rollback

# Docker
docker stop lindy-app
docker run -d --name lindy-app-rollback \
  -e LINDY_CALLBACK_SECRET="$LINDY_CALLBACK_SECRET" \
  lindy-integration:previous-tag

# Update Lindy agents back to previous URLs if needed
```

## Output

Produce a deployment receipt with the release identifier, deployed callback
URL, health-check result, authenticated and unauthenticated webhook outcomes,
and the verified Lindy task ID. Keep the previous image or deployment revision
and the corresponding rollback command with that receipt.

## Examples

For a Vercel release, record the production URL, a `GET /health` 200 result,
an unauthenticated callback 401 result, and a successful signed test event.
If the signed callback returns 502, invoke the documented rollback before
changing Lindy agent URLs or retrying the test.

## Deployment Checklist

| Step | Verification |
|------|-------------|
| Build passes | `npm run build` exits 0 |
| Tests pass | `npm test` all green |
| Secrets configured | API key + webhook secret in platform |
| Health check responds | `GET /health` returns 200 |
| Webhook auth works | POST with valid token returns 200 |
| Webhook auth rejects | POST without token returns 401 |
| Lindy agent URLs updated | HTTP Request actions point to prod |
| End-to-end test | Trigger agent, receive callback |

## Error Handling

| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Webhook 502 | App crashed/not running | Check container logs, restart |
| Webhook timeout | Slow processing | Respond 200 immediately, process async |
| Wrong URL in Lindy | Not updated post-deploy | Update HTTP Request action URLs |
| SSL error | Certificate issue | Verify HTTPS cert is valid |
| Secret mismatch | Dev secret in prod | Verify production secrets match Lindy config |
