Deployments and Gateways are the two ways to connect an app to Airia. Both are built from the same three ingredients: the app you want to use, the credentials that connect to it, and the specific tools you want exposed. What changes between them is scope and where they’re used. A Deployment connects one app for use inside an Airia agent. Each Deployment can be scoped to a specific project or all projects in your tenant. The same app can be deployed more than once, for example once per project, each with its own set of enabled tools. A Gateway bundles one or more apps behind a single, unique endpoint that an Admin or End User can use in an MCP client like Cursor, Claude Code, or Claude Desktop. A Gateway is scoped to a visibility level rather than a project. See Tenant vs. Personal Level Gateway Configs for how that visibility setting works.
