Many of us trigger deploys from CI platforms like Github Actions. It would be nice if we could pass additional data to the deploy script.

I'd love to know which additional data you want to have available, this request is quite open now and I can't work with it.

Thank you for the response. I'm happy to elaborate. 

I would like to be able to call the deploy endpoint with arbitrary data like so 
```
https://ploi.io/api/servers/{server}/sites/{id}/deploy?foo=bar
```

And be able to read it in my deploy script like this: 
```
echo $VAR_FOO
```
