Provision a Service

with Fastly

Stand up a new Fastly VCL service end to end and activate it.

  1. Create the new VCL service that will hold the configuration.
  2. Open a new draft version on the freshly created service.
  3. Attach an origin backend to the draft version.
  4. Associate the public domain with the draft version.
  5. Activate the draft version so the configuration goes live.
What you'll need to have ready
  • apiToken: The Fastly API token used to authenticate requests.
  • serviceName: The name for the new service.
  • serviceComment: An optional comment describing the service.
  • backendAddress: The hostname or IP address of the origin backend.
  • backendName: A name for the backend (defaults to the address if omitted).
  • domainName: The public domain name to associate with the service.
