 ## Usage
 ### Pre-requisites
-Create a workflow `.yml` file in your repositories `.github/workflows` directory. An [example workflow](#example-workflow---create-a-release) is available below. For more information, reference the GitHub Help Documentation for [Creating a workflow file](https://help.github.com/en/articles/configuring-a-workflow#creating-a-workflow-file).

For more information, reference the GitHub Help Documentation for [Creating a workflow file](https://help.github.com/en/articles/configuring-a-workflow#creating-a-workflow-file).
 
 ### Inputs
 For more information on these inputs, see the [API Documentation](https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/releases/#input)
 
 - `tag_name`: The name of the tag for this release
 - `release_name`: The name of the release
+- `body`: Text describing the contents of the release. Optional, and not needed if using `body_path`.
+- `body_path`: A file with contents describing the release. Optional, and not needed if using `body`.
 - `draft`: `true` to create a draft (unpublished) release, `false` to create a published one. Default: `false`
 - `prerelease`: `true` to identify the release as a prerelease. `false` to identify the release as a full release. Default `false`
 
+#### `body_path`
+The `body_path` is valuable for dynamically creating a `.md` within code commits and even within the Github Action steps leading up to the `create-release`.
+
 ### Outputs
 For more information on these outputs, see the [API Documentation](https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/releases/#response-4) for an example of what these outputs look like
 
 - `id`: The release ID
 - `html_url`: The URL users can navigate to in order to view the release. i.e. `https://github.com/octocat/Hello-World/releases/v1.0.0`
-- `upload_url`: The URL for uploading assets to the release, which could be used by GitHub Actions for additional uses, for example the [`@actions/upload-release-asset](https://www.github.com/actions/upload-release-asset) GitHub Action
+- `upload_url`: The URL for uploading assets to the release, which could be used by GitHub Actions for additional uses, for example the [`@actions/upload-release-asset`](https://www.github.com/actions/upload-release-asset) GitHub Action
