Hi,

I am integrating with Octopus Deploy to push packages after build using octo.exe. I also want to create a release from the build with the release number being the same as the package version. How can i use variables in the create_release_advanced section?

Example from yml
''' create_release: true
project: "Project Name" create_release_advanced: --packageversion $version
''' But i receive an error on build when creating th release stating '$version' is not a valid version string.

Can someone help please?

Thanks

   Try using $(appveyor_build_version) instead of $version.
