Only deploy pull requests

Is is possible to run a deployment step only if it's a pull request or do I need to use a branch convention for that?

You can add a condition to deployment, something like:
```
deploy:
- provider: ...
  ...
  on:
    APPVEYOR_PULL_REQUEST_NUMBER: /\d+/
```

Oh, sorry, I've misread the question. Deployment is disabled for PRs, but you can allow deployment on PRs for private repositories only.

Ok, so just to be clean, with a paid AppVeyor account I can deploy on PR:s, or do you mean a private GitHub repository?

I mean private GitHub repository.

With public repo anyone can do a PR and cause deployment which is a security issue.

That's true.

Is it possible to add a condition like "only deploy open PR:s to the master branch" with a private repository?

Yes, you can add another condition:
```
  ...
  on:
    APPVEYOR_PULL_REQUEST_NUMBER: /\d+/
    branch: master
```
