Hi,
I’m trying to use the API to promote a release from one environment to the next. I can make other api calls successfully such as retrieving information and my user is a system administrator in Octopus.
Octopus Server version is 2.5.10.567
The call I’m trying is:
POST /api/deployments {EnvironmentId: 'Environments-65', ReleaseId: 'releases-4217'}
Based on the docs at https://github.com/OctopusDeploy/OctopusDeploy-Api/wiki/Deployments I believe this should be enough to promote the release ‘releases-4217’ into the environment ‘Environments-65’.
The response I receive however is:
{ ErrorMessage: 'Value cannot be null.\r\nParameter name: instance',
FullException: 'System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.\r\nParameter name: instance\r\n at System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.ValidationContext..ctor

Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
