Prerequisites

• Replit Teams or Enterprise plan
• Organization Owner or Admin role
• Team API token stored in

  REPLIT_TOKEN

Instructions

Step 1: Team Member Management

// src/admin/team-manager.ts
interface TeamMember {
  username: string;
  email: string;
  role: 'owner' | 'admin' | 'member';
  lastActive: string;
}

async function listMembers(teamId: string): Promise<TeamMember[]> {
  const res = await fetch(`https://replit.com/api/v1/teams/${teamId}/members`, {
    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.REPLIT_TOKEN}` },
  });
  return res.json();
}

async function inviteMember(teamId: string, email: string, role: string) {
  return fetch(`https://replit.com/api/v1/teams/${teamId}/members`, {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.REPLIT_TOKEN}`,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({ email, role }),
  });
}

async function removeMember(teamId: string, username: string) {
  return fetch(`https://replit.com/api/v1/teams/${teamId}/members/${username}`, {
    method: 'DELETE',
    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.REPLIT_TOKEN}` },
  });
}

Step 2: Seat Audit

// Identify inactive members for seat optimization
async function auditSeats(teamId: string) {
  const members = await listMembers(teamId);
  const thirtyDaysAgo = new Date(Date.now() - 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);

  const audit = {
    total: members.length,
    active: members.filter(m => new Date(m.lastActive) > thirtyDaysAgo),
    inactive: members.filter(m => new Date(m.lastActive) <= thirtyDaysAgo),
    costPerSeat: 25, // USD/month for Teams
  };

  console.log(`Active: ${audit.active.length}, Inactive: ${audit.inactive.length}`);
  console.log(`Potential savings: $${audit.inactive.length * audit.costPerSeat}/month`);

  return audit;
}

Step 3: Deployment Promotion

// Promote from development to production deployment
async function promoteDeployment(replId: string) {
  // Step 1: Verify dev deployment is healthy
  const devHealth = await fetch(`https://${replId}.replit.dev/health`);
  if (!devHealth.ok) {
    throw new Error('Development deployment not healthy. Fix before promoting.');
  }

  // Step 2: Trigger production deployment
  const res = await fetch(`https://replit.com/api/v1/repls/${replId}/deploy`, {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.REPLIT_TOKEN}`,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      type: 'autoscale', // or 'reserved-vm'
    }),
  });

  const deployment = await res.json();
  console.log(`Production URL: ${deployment.url}`);

  // Step 3: Verify production health
  await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 10000)); // Wait for deploy
  const prodHealth = await fetch(`${deployment.url}/health`);
  if (!prodHealth.ok) {
    console.error('Production health check failed. Consider rollback.');
  }

  return deployment;
}

Step 4: Custom Domain Configuration

1. Go to Deployment Settings > Custom Domain
2. Enter your domain: app.example.com
3. Add DNS records at your registrar:
   - CNAME: app -> your-repl-slug.replit.app
4. Wait for SSL certificate auto-provisioning (1-5 minutes)
5. Verify: curl -I https://app.example.com

For domains purchased through Replit:
- MX records supported for custom email services
- DNS managed in Replit dashboard

Step 5: Bulk Repl Audit

// Audit all team Repls for compliance
async function auditRepls(teamId: string) {
  const res = await fetch(`https://replit.com/api/v1/teams/${teamId}/repls`, {
    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.REPLIT_TOKEN}` },
  });
  const repls = await res.json();

  const report = {
    total: repls.length,
    withDeployments: repls.filter((r: any) => r.deployment).length,
    publicRepls: repls.filter((r: any) => r.isPublic).length,
    staleRepls: repls.filter((r: any) => {
      const lastEdit = new Date(r.lastEdited);
      return Date.now() - lastEdit.getTime() > 90 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
    }),
  };

  console.log('Repl Audit Report:');
  console.log(`  Total: ${report.total}`);
  console.log(`  Deployed: ${report.withDeployments}`);
  console.log(`  Public: ${report.publicRepls} (review for secrets exposure)`);
  console.log(`  Stale (>90 days): ${report.staleRepls.length}`);

  return report;
}

Step 6: Activity Monitoring

# Review recent team activity
curl "https://replit.com/api/v1/teams/TEAM_ID/audit-log?limit=50" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $REPLIT_TOKEN" | \
  jq '.events[] | {user, action, resource, timestamp}'

# Export member activity CSV
curl "https://replit.com/api/v1/teams/TEAM_ID/members" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $REPLIT_TOKEN" | \
  jq -r '.[] | [.username, .email, .role, .lastActive] | @csv' > team-activity.csv
