Create and Deploy Release of Another Project

[pbassett]

In Octopus Deploy, one of the built-in steps is “Deploy a Release”, allowing you to deploy a release of another Octopus project.

I need to both create and deploy a release of another project. (I need to create a new deployment in case octopus variables have changed since the last deploy – I’ll need to use the new variables.)

What is the best way to do this?

Hi pbassett,

The best way to go about this is to create a release with a script step and use an API call. Here is a link to an example that you can modify for your use case: https://github.com/OctopusDeploy/OctopusDeploy-Api/blob/master/REST/PowerShell/Releases/CreateRelease.ps1

Please let me know if that works for you or if you need any further assistance.

Thanks,
Jeremy
