You can create an edge service by using:

To create an edge service, proceed as follows:

Access Azion Console > Edge Services.
Click on the + Service button.
Give a name for your service.
Define the variables, if necessary.
- The variables must be in the format Variable = Value.
Click the Save button.
Go to the Resources tab and provide resources for your service.

Run the following POST request in your terminal, replacing [TOKEN VALUE] with your personal token and informing the name of the service being created:

curl --location 'https://api.azionapi.net/edge_services/' \

--header 'Accept: application/json; version=3' \

--header 'Authorization: Token [TOKEN VALUE]' \

--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \

--data {

"name": "string"

}

Now, the service is available and able to be deployed onto the edge nodes.

Check the Azion API documentation and the OpenAPI specification to know more about all features available via API.
