In TFS 2017 Update 1 after downloading programmatically a release definition with REST api, I edited the downloaded json and uploaded again programmatically.
The changes are present. However the server phase of manual intervention is missing in the environments after the changes.
Can someone else reproduce it?
The program C# to download and upload the release definition is at my github page githubpage
Use
api-version=3.2-preview.3instead of3.0-preview.2when you update the release definition.
