Create a Release and Retrieve All Releases

Key Features and Highlights

This workflow integrates with Sentry.io to automatically create new release versions and instantly retrieve all historical release information. It offers a simple, one-click trigger operation, enabling development teams to efficiently manage and monitor application versions.

Core Problems Addressed

Accurately creating and tracking release versions is critical for ensuring stability in software development and operations. This workflow eliminates the complexity and fragmentation of manual release creation by automating the process, thereby enhancing transparency and efficiency in the release management lifecycle.

Use Cases

  • Software version release management
  • Preparation for error monitoring and tracking
  • Automated release logging within Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines
  • Scenarios where development teams need quick access to all historical release records

Main Workflow Steps

  1. Manual Trigger Execution: The user initiates the workflow by clicking the execute button.
  2. Create Release Version: Automatically calls the Sentry.io API to create a release with a specified version number (e.g., 0.0.1).
  3. Retrieve All Release Records: Subsequently calls the Sentry.io API to fetch and return a detailed list of all release versions under the organization.
