'What is ReleaseDeployPhase.runPlanId and how it can be used?

The ReleaseDeployPhase object schema is documented here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/release/releases/get-release-environment?view=azure-devops-rest-7.1#releasedeployphase

It contains a GUID field runPlanId. What is this field and how can we use it in REST API?

It's very likely used by the test plan integration capabilities. When a test plan is used to trigger a release, the runPlanId is populated.
