Is there a way to draft a release in github from within a continua build skript?  
  
When running our production build I want to see this version as a release in github

Hi Haggy,  
  
Not currently, but this is something we could implement as a build event handler. We’ll add this to our to-do list.&nbsp;

thx for your reply. there is simple post to do this wiht a generated access tokken 🙂 I’ll attach the example below.  
  
btw you should also test that it works with repositories owned by companies not users. As currently there seem to be some differences.  
  
  
  
curl -X POST -H “Content-Type: application/json” -H “Cache-Control: no-cache” -H “Postman-Token: d80927b0-7113-a6ce-25d7-ea3e4e10c5ad” -d ‘{“tag\_name”: “v1.0.4”,“target\_commitish”: “dev”,“name”: “v1.0.3”,“body”: “Release of version 1.0.4”,“draft”: false,“prerelease”: true}
