Hi David,
Thanks for getting in touch.
I run the metadata step after creating an Octopus release - is that correct?
You’d need to run the metadata before creating your Octopus release, otherwise your work items won’t be included in the release.
What version of the Octopus Deploy plugin are you currently running (latest version is 5.1.6 that can be found here)? The data that’s generated seems to be missing a number of fields, including the commit details.
Also, if there are no changes in your TeamCity build (i.e. you re-run an already run build in TeamCity), there won’t be any commits included in the metadata. This is something we’re currently trying to figure out a solution for.
Thank you and best regards,
Henrik
