Note

This package is published as an ES Module (ESM) only. For applications using CommonJS, use await import("@vercel/sdk") to import and use this package.

Requirements

For supported JavaScript runtimes, please consult RUNTIMES.md.

Access Tokens

You need to pass a valid access token to be able to use any resource or operation. Refer to Creating an Access Token to learn how to create one. Make sure that you create a token with the correct Vercel scope. If you face permission (403) errors when you are already sending a token, it can be one of the following problems:

  • The token you are using has expired. Check the expiry date of the token in the Vercel dashboard.
  • The token does not have access to the correct scope, either not the right team or it does not have account level access.
  • The resource or operation you are trying to use is not available for that team. For example, AccessGroups is an Enterprise only feature and you are using a token for a team on the pro plan.

Authentication

Per-Client Security Schemes

This SDK supports the following security scheme globally:

Name Type Scheme
bearerToken http HTTP Bearer

To authenticate with the API the bearerToken parameter must be set when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";

const vercel = new Vercel({
  bearerToken: "<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
});

async function run() {
  const result = await vercel.accessGroups.readAccessGroup({
    idOrName: "<value>",
  });

  // Handle the result
  console.log(result);
}

run();

SDK Example Usage

List deployments

List deployments under the authenticated user or team.

import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";

const vercel = new Vercel({
  bearerToken: "<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
});

async function run() {
  const result = await vercel.deployments.getDeployments({
    app: "docs",
    from: 1612948664566,
    limit: 10,
    projectId: "QmXGTs7mvAMMC7WW5ebrM33qKG32QK3h4vmQMjmY",
    target: "production",
    to: 1612948664566,
    users: "kr1PsOIzqEL5Xg6M4VZcZosf,K4amb7K9dAt5R2vBJWF32bmY",
    since: 1540095775941,
    until: 1540095775951,
    state: "BUILDING,READY",
  });

  // Handle the result
  console.log(result);
}

run();

Update an existing project

Update the fields of a project using either its name or id.

import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";

const vercel = new Vercel({
  bearerToken: "<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
});

async function run() {
  const result = await vercel.projects.updateProject({
    idOrName: "prj_12HKQaOmR5t5Uy6vdcQsNIiZgHGB",
    requestBody: {
      name: "a-project-name",
    },
  });

  // Handle the result
  console.log(result);
}

run();

Available Resources and Operations

Available methods

Standalone functions

All the methods listed above are available as standalone functions. These functions are ideal for use in applications running in the browser, serverless runtimes or other environments where application bundle size is a primary concern. When using a bundler to build your application, all unused functionality will be either excluded from the final bundle or tree-shaken away.

To read more about standalone functions, check FUNCTIONS.md.

Available standalone functions

File uploads

Certain SDK methods accept files as part of a multi-part request. It is possible and typically recommended to upload files as a stream rather than reading the entire contents into memory. This avoids excessive memory consumption and potentially crashing with out-of-memory errors when working with very large files. The following example demonstrates how to attach a file stream to a request.

Tip

Depending on your JavaScript runtime, there are convenient utilities that return a handle to a file without reading the entire contents into memory:

  • Node.js v20+: Since v20, Node.js comes with a native openAsBlob function in node:fs.
  • Bun: The native Bun.file function produces a file handle that can be used for streaming file uploads.
  • Browsers: All supported browsers return an instance to a File when reading the value from an <input type="file"> element.
  • Node.js v18: A file stream can be created using the fileFrom helper from fetch-blob/from.js.
import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";

const vercel = new Vercel({
  bearerToken: "<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
});

async function run() {
  const result = await vercel.artifacts.uploadArtifact({
    contentLength: 4504.13,
    xArtifactDuration: 400,
    xArtifactClientCi: "VERCEL",
    xArtifactClientInteractive: 0,
    xArtifactTag: "Tc0BmHvJYMIYJ62/zx87YqO0Flxk+5Ovip25NY825CQ=",
    hash: "12HKQaOmR5t5Uy6vdcQsNIiZgHGB",
  });

  // Handle the result
  console.log(result);
}

run();

Retries

Some of the endpoints in this SDK support retries. If you use the SDK without any configuration, it will fall back to the default retry strategy provided by the API. However, the default retry strategy can be overridden on a per-operation basis, or across the entire SDK.

To change the default retry strategy for a single API call, simply provide a retryConfig object to the call:

import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";

const vercel = new Vercel({
  bearerToken: "<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
});

async function run() {
  const result = await vercel.accessGroups.readAccessGroup({
    idOrName: "<value>",
  }, {
    retries: {
      strategy: "backoff",
      backoff: {
        initialInterval: 1,
        maxInterval: 50,
        exponent: 1.1,
        maxElapsedTime: 100,
      },
      retryConnectionErrors: false,
    },
  });

  // Handle the result
  console.log(result);
}

run();

If you'd like to override the default retry strategy for all operations that support retries, you can provide a retryConfig at SDK initialization:

import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";

const vercel = new Vercel({
  retryConfig: {
    strategy: "backoff",
    backoff: {
      initialInterval: 1,
      maxInterval: 50,
      exponent: 1.1,
      maxElapsedTime: 100,
    },
    retryConnectionErrors: false,
  },
  bearerToken: "<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
});

async function run() {
  const result = await vercel.accessGroups.readAccessGroup({
    idOrName: "<value>",
  });

  // Handle the result
  console.log(result);
}

run();

Error Handling

All SDK methods return a response object or throw an error. By default, an API error will throw a errors.SDKError.

If a HTTP request fails, an operation my also throw an error from the models/errors/httpclienterrors.ts module:

HTTP Client Error Description
RequestAbortedError HTTP request was aborted by the client
RequestTimeoutError HTTP request timed out due to an AbortSignal signal
ConnectionError HTTP client was unable to make a request to a server
InvalidRequestError Any input used to create a request is invalid
UnexpectedClientError Unrecognised or unexpected error

In addition, when custom error responses are specified for an operation, the SDK may throw their associated Error type. You can refer to respective Errors tables in SDK docs for more details on possible error types for each operation. For example, the readAccessGroup method may throw the following errors:

Error Type Status Code Content Type
errors.SDKError 4XX, 5XX */*
import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";
import { SDKValidationError } from "@vercel/sdk/models/errors/sdkvalidationerror.js";

const vercel = new Vercel({
  bearerToken: "<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
});

async function run() {
  let result;
  try {
    result = await vercel.accessGroups.readAccessGroup({
      idOrName: "<value>",
    });

    // Handle the result
    console.log(result);
  } catch (err) {
    switch (true) {
      case (err instanceof SDKValidationError): {
        // Validation errors can be pretty-printed
        console.error(err.pretty());
        // Raw value may also be inspected
        console.error(err.rawValue);
        return;
      }
      default: {
        throw err;
      }
    }
  }
}

run();

Validation errors can also occur when either method arguments or data returned from the server do not match the expected format. The SDKValidationError that is thrown as a result will capture the raw value that failed validation in an attribute called rawValue. Additionally, a pretty() method is available on this error that can be used to log a nicely formatted string since validation errors can list many issues and the plain error string may be difficult read when debugging.

Server Selection

Override Server URL Per-Client

The default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the serverURL: string optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";

const vercel = new Vercel({
  serverURL: "https://api.vercel.com",
  bearerToken: "<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
});

async function run() {
  const result = await vercel.accessGroups.readAccessGroup({
    idOrName: "<value>",
  });

  // Handle the result
  console.log(result);
}

run();

Custom HTTP Client

The TypeScript SDK makes API calls using an HTTPClient that wraps the native Fetch API. This client is a thin wrapper around fetch and provides the ability to attach hooks around the request lifecycle that can be used to modify the request or handle errors and response.

The HTTPClient constructor takes an optional fetcher argument that can be used to integrate a third-party HTTP client or when writing tests to mock out the HTTP client and feed in fixtures.

The following example shows how to use the "beforeRequest" hook to to add a custom header and a timeout to requests and how to use the "requestError" hook to log errors:

import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";
import { HTTPClient } from "@vercel/sdk/lib/http";

const httpClient = new HTTPClient({
  // fetcher takes a function that has the same signature as native `fetch`.
  fetcher: (request) => {
    return fetch(request);
  }
});

httpClient.addHook("beforeRequest", (request) => {
  const nextRequest = new Request(request, {
    signal: request.signal || AbortSignal.timeout(5000)
  });

  nextRequest.headers.set("x-custom-header", "custom value");

  return nextRequest;
});

httpClient.addHook("requestError", (error, request) => {
  console.group("Request Error");
  console.log("Reason:", `${error}`);
  console.log("Endpoint:", `${request.method} ${request.url}`);
  console.groupEnd();
});

const sdk = new Vercel({ httpClient });

Debugging

You can setup your SDK to emit debug logs for SDK requests and responses.

You can pass a logger that matches console's interface as an SDK option.

Warning

Beware that debug logging will reveal secrets, like API tokens in headers, in log messages printed to a console or files. It's recommended to use this feature only during local development and not in production.

import { Vercel } from "@vercel/sdk";

const sdk = new Vercel({ debugLogger: console });

Development

Maturity

This SDK is in beta, and there may be breaking changes between versions without a major version update. Therefore, we recommend pinning usage to a specific package version. This way, you can install the same version each time without breaking changes unless you are intentionally looking for the latest version.

Contributions

While we value open-source contributions to this SDK, this library is generated programmatically. Any manual changes added to internal files will be overwritten on the next generation. We look forward to hearing your feedback. Feel free to open a PR or an issue with a proof of concept and we'll do our best to include it in a future release.
