Return evidence id to user when release evidence is created in API

Problem to solve

When a user hits the release evidence endpoint we schedule a background job for generating release evidence and just respond with 200. Generating evidence can take a very long time, so doing this in a web transaction doesn't sound like a good idea.

Intended users

• Delaney (Development Team Lead)
• Sasha (Software Developer)

Proposal

I'd suggest in API request:

1. create an evidence with empty evidence json
2. schedule generating evidence json
3. return evidence id to user

Permissions and Security

• Must follow the current Release Evidence permission paradigm

Documentation

• Update documentation to include this extension

What is the type of buyer?

• Premium +
