The REST API allows me to programmatically deploy a new set of reports to a Power BI App Workspace, but there is no way to then Publish this App to make it available to the users via the REST API. This is stopping me from creating a complete deployment system for Power BI reports for use in a Continuous Deployment process.
Currently I have to manually navigate to the App workspace and press the 'Deploy App' button in my browser.

RE: Publish App via REST API
Yes, PLEASE implement this ASAP as this lacking capability precludes any real CI/CD automation
RE: Publish App via REST API
we need this to start automating our deployments.
RE: Publish App via REST API
This is a must have.
RE: Publish App via REST API
I have the same problem and decided to share each report individually instead of creating apps
RE: Publish App via REST API
There is also now way to access the AppID programmatically and that is nightmare since that is what we share with our client users. Literally only way is to go into the workspace and copy it. I guess I will make my own db table of the AppIDs...
RE: Publish App via REST API
this feature would be very handy for us too!
RE: Publish App via REST API
I represent an ISV that would like to publish 100-500 apps to each of our customers. Each customer we would like to use a seperate workspace as each of them have their datasource. This is a must have for ISVs to leverage apps and build out a Software Delivery Pipeline.
RE: Publish App via REST API
This would really be an helpful feature, especially if a large number of apps/reports are to be published.
