Hi,

Is it possible to trigger a build using the REST API, by providing a account name, project slug and a tag name.
Like, instead of giving commit ID, I would like to go by the tag Id/name.

Thanks.

   No, but you can get Commit Id by tag name (assuming you are using GitHub). Created this sample for you.

   Thanks for the reply.

   I have created a ps1 file to trigger build based on commit ID, where i am using the API token.
   This ps1 file also will go into a public repo.
   Is there a way to secure this value, like the way it is done in appveyor.yml

   It depends on how this file is being called. If this .ps1 file is being called from AppVeyor build, then secure variable is way to go.
