switch branches for published content

[yonicd]

Is there a way via the api to switch branches for already published content?

My use case is that I published content from a working branch and now merged into the main and want to point the existing content to the main instead of starting over.

@yonicd that is a great call-out! This is unfortunately not a part of RStudio Connect presently, but we are tracking the feature internally. I will leave this open and update here once we have an option for doing that! Apologies for the trouble!

In the meantime, switching Vanity URLs could be an option to hide this type of behavior from end users. connectapi::swap_vanity_url() Still not a great workflow though
