          - `target_version` string: The target version that the deployment is attempting to install.
      - `is_scheduled` boolean: Whether this deployment was triggered by a schedule (`schedule_id` is non-empty).
      - `query` string: Query used to filter and select target hosts for the deployment.
      - `running_hosts` integer: Number of hosts on which the deployment is currently running.
      - `schedule_id` string: Identifier of the schedule that triggered this deployment. Empty if triggered manually.
