Deploying a function

I’ve been digging around and this looks like the closest to my problem

The main difference is that they have chosen the distribution method and installed via a link, I’m not quite at that stage yet.

I think I’m in a bit of a no-mans land between the CLI dev enviroment and having installed a distributed app.

Is there an expectation that you’d have a different experience when following the test instructions for a deploy

After you update your app URLs in the Partner Dashboard, you can test your app in a development store to make sure that it’s configured correctly.

  1. In the Partner Dashboard, go to your app’s Overview page.
  2. In the Test your app section, click Select store and choose a store to test the app.

I am running shopify app deploy --force in a github action everytime I merge new code into the main branch, which is also then deployed to the server, that server is connected to the URLs in my config.

In the other thread they are running the shopify CLI deploy command from the hosting provider, is there any advantage to that as apposed to a Github action? It seems like it shouldn’t make a difference to me.
