Deploy CLI Dry Run is now GA
We're excited to announce that Dry Run on Auth0 Deploy CLI is now Generally Available — giving developers full visibility into tenant changes before they're applied.
Key Benefits:
- Preview changes before they hit your tenant. Run a0deploy import --dry-run to see exactly what resources will be created, updated, or deleted — then exit safely. No changes applied, no surprises in production.
- CI/CD-native by default. Dry Run is now non-interactive out of the box, so it works in GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and any headless pipeline. Use --dry-run --apply to show the plan and deploy without prompting — full visibility, zero manual intervention.
- Flexible review modes. Need manual control? --dry-run --interactive gives you the review menu to apply, export to JSON, or exit. Choose the workflow that fits: automated gates in CI, manual review locally.
What's new in GA (beyond EA):
- --dry-run is now non-interactive by default (was interactive-only in EA)
- --dry-run --apply: preview then deploy without prompting — built for CI pipelines
- --dry-run --interactive: opt into the EA interactive menu when you want it
- Backward-compatible Node module API (AUTH0_DRY_RUN: true still works)
