    Can this command line by triggered via a REST Call (POST with a particular payload)?

      I know this is an old thread, but I've been digging through this thread for other details and found the right api call to redeploy an app. Might be useful to someone at some point. 🙂

      {
    "url": "/mgmt/tm/sys/application/service/~Common~tstApp.app~tstApp",
    "method": "PATCH",
    "body": {
        "execute-action": "definition"
    }
}

    This is the command for the tmsh meaning it is possible to run the command on the machine or through ssh ("ssh myBigIpUser@myBigIpServer '....' " ). There are other REST implmentations out there though. Maybe best taking a look at iControl - https://devcentral.f5.com/s/articles/icontrol-rest-101-getting-started
