Releases API (FREE)

Release Evidences were introduced in GitLab 12.5.

description_html became an opt-in field with GitLab 13.12 for performance reasons. Please pass the include_html_description query string parameter if you need it.

The permission model for create, update and delete actions was fixed in GitLab 14.1. See Release permissions for more information.

Use this API to manipulate GitLab Release entries. For manipulating links as a release asset, see Release Links API.

Authentication

For authentication, the Releases API accepts either:

A Personal Access Token using the PRIVATE-TOKEN header.
The GitLab CI/CD job token $CI_JOB_TOKEN using the JOB-TOKEN header.

Upcoming Releases

Introduced in GitLab 12.1.

A release with a released_at attribute set to a future date is labeled as an Upcoming Release in the UI.

Additionally, if a release is requested from the API, for each release with a release_at attribute set to a future date, an additional attribute upcoming_release (set to true) will be returned as part of the response.
