Here is a working PowerShell example (v6.1+): Invoke-RestMethod -Method POST -Uri "http://{bmserver:port}/api/releases/builds/deploy?applicationName=ApiTest&releaseNumber=1.2.3&buildNumber=1&key=<api-key>" For pre-v6.1 versions, the equivalent is: Invoke-RestMethod -Method POST -Uri "http://{bmserver:port}/api/releases/packages/deploy?applicationName=ApiTest&releaseNumber=1.2.3&packageNumber=1&key=<api-key>" I have also put in a doc change request to clarify the endpoint names. Additional note: -UseDefaultCredentials would be required if Integrated Authentication were enabled.

There are 2 ways to handle this: set a higher-scoped variable to the default value, e.g. set $BuildTestsFlag to false at the application group or system level; this removes the need to check at all, or: use if !$IsVariableDefined(BuildTestsFlag) function to determine if it doesn't exist

TFS labels can be a bit complicated, and the way that Visual Studio (GUI) vs tools (tf.exe, BuildMaster, etc) interact with them are different. What may be happening in the GUI is that multiple labels are being created with the same name, and the the GUI is "searching" for files by label name (as opposed to "getting" those files). If you were to do a tf.exe get (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/vsts/tfvc/get-command?view=vsts), for example, you should see the same behavior. Instead, makes sure to first create a label at the $/ root level (e.g. tf label myLabel $/ ), and then you can sub-label items.

We definitely plan to improve the event handling & logging, across the board for our products. I don't have a date on it, but it's in the specification process; we always welcome feedback at this stage, so if you are interested in reviewing once it's ready, we would definitely appreciate it. We don't have an import/export feature for these events. However, they are stored in the database (across a couple tables - EventOccurences and EventOccurenceDetails), so you could extract using this.

This error appears to be related an extension missing. I would stop/start the agent, which should cause the extension to reload

Thanks for response. I created a new API Key. My environment IDs are as follows: Development = 1, Testing = 2, Production = 3, Build = 5 If I run the API call you provided above for Build environment, doesn't it mean I will need to resequence the rest of the environments too?

Here is an example path to a .pdb file, the same folder contains .dll: C:\Users\nsitnikov.dnx\packages\JA.AppCentral.Logging\0.1.7-Build1\lib\dnx451\JA.AppCentral.Logging.pdb Package folder also contains the source in C:\Users\nsitnikov.dnx\packages\JA.AppCentral.Logging\0.1.7-Build1\src folder

Hello, I was not able to reproduce this. Here is what I did. Create a new PowerShell Asset... Name: Test Script Parameters: none One ambient variable: MyEnvVar ==> $EnvVar Contents : Write-Host My var is $MyEnvVar; Create a variable on MYSERVER: $EnvVar = my server var Create a new application with a deployment plan that has a single action (targeting MYSERVER) that calls Test Script Output is My var is my server var, as expected I also deleted $EnvVar from the server, and then created it on an environment the server is associated with, and it works as expected. When I deleted $EnvVar from the environments, it produced the literal output (My var is $MyEnvVar) upon running. So, my guess is there's a typo somewhere... best, Alana
