Deployment API Documentation

The deployment API documentation doesn't really cover real world scenarios. There are quick samples of a line of PowerShell, but really, that's now how anyone deploys. Deployments are done from a CI/CD server. So the build server has to create a package, upload a package, start a deployment, complete a deployment, etc... There needs to be a better explanation of how the different steps work together. Additionally, since you call the API in PowerShell, can Optimizely provide basic scripts for each step, so at the bare minimum, someone could deploy a site without having to change anything. And then someone could customize the script if they wanted to.

    I thought of a few ways that I struggled with this:

    1. For a deployment with two parts, start and complete... how to enable the ability to approve the first part of variouse CI/CD servers (Jenkins, Azure, Octopus, etc...)

    2. For deployments with multiple parts... how to maintain the deployment id

    3. How to set up deployments so you dont have to deploy through all the various environments, just to get up to production.

    4. Difference between deploying to an environment, vs moving code between environments
