POST /api/v1/sites/123/deploys HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
Accept: */*
Accept-Encoding: gzip
Content-Type: application/zip
Content-Length: 123456

[binary data bytes of the BinData]

    sys.exit()

url = "https://example.com/api/v1/sites/123/deploys"

# Send a POST with the contents of the BinData in the binary HTTP request body.
