Deploying to DO app platform with Fetch
Hello,
So I have a fetch script on one of my edit pages that when the page loads it sends the ID of the page to a webserver and that returns a bunch of different items that are used in a few selects. Those items are updated regularly and thus the need to fetch them.
How can I deploy refine as a web service on digital ocean app platform instead of as a static site so that the fetch continues to work?

Hi @erekyu. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Hmm, I don't know enough to give you a confident answer yet about deploying refine on Digital Ocean App Platform specifically. However, I can provide you with some general information on deploying a refine app.
Deploying a refine app is similar to deploying any other React app. You can follow the general guidelines for deploying React applications on the Digital Ocean App Platform. Here's an example of deploying a refine app on Netlify, which might give you some insights into the deployment process:
1. Create a free account on Netlify.com (https://www.netlify.com/).
2. Click
Add new site > Import an existing project.
3. Choose GitHub and follow the on-screen instructions to authenticate your GitHub account. Then, choose your project’s GitHub repository from the list provided.
4. Review and confirm the settings provided by Netlify. These settings should already be correctly configured for your refine project. Simply scroll down and click Deploy site.
For more information on deploying refine applications, you can refer to the refine documentation on deployment (https://refine.dev/docs/tutorial/getting-started/deploy-project).
For deploying on Digital Ocean App Platform, you can follow their official documentation (https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/app-platform/) and adapt the process for your refine application.

The deployment process of refine is no different from any other React application

I think my issue is that I have a fetch in my edit page that gets data from a server but it isn't static data so it can be different every time the edit page is loaded. It works in dev but when I deploy it then it does not work so I thought maybe I was deploying it wrong.

when you enter the web app, it should fetch latest data.
I don't know what could go wrong with the information I have

Hello @erekyu make sure you are passing ENV variables, API url correctly, there are many possibilities might be causing that, we can't know for sure without more details.
