Hi ,

   Can we create unique identifier for releases that does not rely on the release name in Jira cloud.

Hi @Kustagi Suma 

Can you provide a bit more context on what your case is?

If you use the API, you also get version by their ID.

@Marc -Devoteam-  As we have a sprint name which has unique identifier generated and similary do we have any option for releases where they we can create manually the release id irrespective of release name.

HI @Kustagi Suma 

No this is not an option on versions.

As versions are not as sprints, sprint names are generated based on the latest sprint name, if in your space you would rename or create a new sprint with a new name the next sprint will start using the lates name and add a follow-up number.

Versions don't as this depends on a version name that is set by a space admin
