Description Evgeni Golov 2019-10-25 15:01:50 UTC
When you call <code>/katello/api/content_views/:id/publish</code>, you get a ForemanTask, that you can poll until it's done and then analyze the result (e.g. because you now want to promote the freshly generated version to a LCE).

In 3.12.3, the result looks like this:

<pre>

See how the <code>output</code> section is empty?

Technically, I could look at the <code>input</code> as it also contains the <code>content_view_version_id</code> I care about, but it kinda feels weird to look at the task input rather output.
