Docker Cloud's **Autoredeploy** feature allows a service that uses an image
stored in Docker Hub to automatically redeploy whenever a new image is pushed or
built.

> **Notes**:
>
>* **Autoredeploy** works only for hub images with the _latest_ tag.
>
>* To enable **autoredeploy** on an image stored in a third party registry,
> you need to use [redeploy triggers](triggers.md) instead.

## Launch a new service with autoredeploy

You can launch a service with **autoredeploy** enabled by enabling it from the **general settings** section of the **Launch new service** wizard.

By default, autoredeploy is *deactivated*.

### Use the CLI or API

You can enable **autoredeploy** when launching a service using the CLI or API.

By default, autoredeploy is set to `false`. See the [API documentation](/apidocs/docker-cloud.md) for more information.

## Enable autoredeploy to an already deployed service

You can activate or deactivate **autoredeploy** on a service after it has been deployed.

1. Click into the service detail page.
2. Click **Edit**.
3. Change the **autoredeploy** setting on the form to `true`.
4. Click **Save changes**.


### Use the CLI or API

You can set the **autoredeploy** option after the service has been deployed,
using the CLI or API.
