Appcenter-cli: Support for specifying multiple distribution groups in a release

Created on 8 Aug 2018 · 9Comments · Source: microsoft/appcenter-cli

Is it possible via the CLI to upload a release to multiple distribution groups?

It does not appear that there is a way to upload a release once, and share it with multiple groups using appcenter distribute release -g.

Example: I want to share the release with the Collaborators group, which is managed at the organization level, and then also share it with another group which includes a few additional testers which are not part of the organization, all from a CI environment, using the cli.

Hi, has this been taken up as a feature request? We have the same requirement. Using the REST API is more complex than the cli, if possible we would like to use the cli only.
Thanks!

Hi @isuda! Thanks for reaching out. Currently we don't have this functionality to upload a release to multiple distribution groups via the CLI. However, you can do this via the APIs (see documentation). I'll add your issue as a feature request.

Yes, It would be great if this feature is added to cli too. Also we are not able to disable notification when we use 'appcenter distribute release', so it would be really nice if all that would be available.
