Hy there I've bee successfully managed to add a deployment section to my yaml file to depoly on github release. The problem is that even if the deployment succeeds nothing shows up on my github repo in the releases section..

I thought it might be a matter of time, so that the artifacts get uploaded to github, but after more than 2 days nothing has been released on my GitHub Repo.

The weirdest part is that nothing failes on the appveyor build (or at least no error are reported).

Am I doing something wrong?

appveyor.yml

## .. more ..
artifacts:
- path: '**/*Setup.exe'
  name: installer




deploy:
  - provider: GitHub
    auth_token:
      secure: # My encripted github token
    release: Ember-v%RELEASE_VERSION%.$(appveyor_build_version)
    description: 'Beta release of Ember editor v$(appveyor_build_version)'
    # github automatically does source zip/tarball for us
    artifact: installer
    draft: true
    prerelease: true
    on:
      branch: procedural_generation # release from master branch only
      configuration: Release 
      appveyor_repo_tag: false      # deploy on tag push only

   That's indeed looks weird, no releases at all (unless there were deleted after successful deployment?): https://github.com/L4ZZA/pyro/releases

   AppVeyor doesn't swallow any exceptions believe me - you should see an exception if it goes wrong.

   Have you tried adding a release with GitHub API directly: https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/releases/#create-a-release?

   It wasn't showing up until I set draft to false and back to true again.. I'm not sure what the issue was.. thanks anyway.
