rsconnect-python

The command-line interface for Posit Connect and Posit Connect Cloud.

Installation

uv

uv tool install rsconnect-python

pipx

pipx install rsconnect-python

into your project

python -m pip install rsconnect-python

Usage with Posit Connect

Log in to your Posit Connect server:

rsconnect login https://connect.example.com

Deploy your application:

rsconnect deploy shiny app.py --title "my shiny app"

Browser login requires Posit Connect 2026.02.0 or later. In remote containers, or other sessions where the browser cannot reach the CLI's local callback, use --use-device-code with Connect 2026.06.0 or later.

For older servers, or automation that cannot use identity tokens, get an API key and store it with rsconnect add. See the authentication guide for identity token requirements and other login options.

Read more about publisher and admin capabilities on the docs site.

Usage with Posit Connect Cloud

Store your credentials, logging in to Posit Connect Cloud through your browser:

rsconnect add --connect-cloud --account <YOUR-ACCOUNT-NAME> --name cloud

Deploy your application:

rsconnect deploy shiny app.py --name cloud --title "my shiny app"

For non-interactive use such as CI, pass client credentials with --client-id and --client-secret, or the CONNECT_CLOUD_CLIENT_ID and CONNECT_CLOUD_CLIENT_SECRET environment variables.
