Teams & Projects Releases

Releases

Use a release to collect issues planned for a delivery and track its status, dates, lead and ship gate. Releases can cover one project or the whole team.

Create a release

  1. Open the team and select Projects → Releases.
  2. Choose Whole team (all apps) or a project from the scope selector. The selected scope is where the new release will be created.
  3. Click New release. The form opens inline on the page.
  4. Enter a recognizable Name. Set Status (Planned, Active, Shipped or Cancelled), Start date, Target date, Ship gate (%), and Lead as needed. Add an optional description.
  5. Click Create release. The release appears in the selected scope.

Inline new-release form with empty example values

The default status is Planned and the default ship gate is 90%. Dates, lead and description are optional. A release needs a name before it can be created.

Add issues to a release

  1. On the release row, expand Issues.
  2. Click Add issues.
  3. Optionally filter by issue title/number, sprint or status.
  4. Select individual issues and click Add selected, or use Add all for every issue matching the current add-list filters.

Assigned issues show their status and sprint. Use the page-level search, sprint and status controls to filter the assigned list. Removing an issue from a release does not delete the issue.

For a team-wide release, the add list can include issues across projects. If an issue already belongs to another release, adding it here moves its release assignment.

Edit, ship, or delete

  • Edit release changes its fields. In edit mode, Scope can move it between a project and whole-team scope.
  • Ship & start next is available on an active release. Review the confirmation choices for unfinished issues before confirming.
  • Delete release opens a confirmation that includes the release name and issue count. Deleting a release is separate from deleting its issues.
