RELEASE: Is it possible to select specific cards from the done column to create a release version?

brad.shantz

I have a Kanban project in which cards continuously flow to the "done" column. Then, on a set cadence, we deploy into our production environment. However, say that there are 40 cards in "done", but only 30 of them are things we want in a particular release. Is it possible to create a release containing ONLY those items? Right now the Release Version dialog appears to only create a version for ALL items in the done column.

Hi Brad - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

You can create a Release and then do a bulk change on a filter for those 30 to update the FixVersion field with the value. Then when you do a release, you can pick the one you created.

Jack Brickey

One option you have is to use the Kanban sub-filter (board settings > general > sub-filter) that would remove done issues that are not to be released. so for example you could use a label e.g. "non-release" on the issues you do not want released. then exclude any issues where status = done and labels = non-release. then when you release only those that show in the board will be released.

Hi @brad.shantz

I wonder if you are missing a column and status from your board's workflow: ready to release.

The workflow you described indicates the issues are developed, and ready to release, but not actually "done". If you added the column before Done, you could:

Accumulate issues which are dev-complete and ready to release,
Select the ones for the release,
Move those to Done, and
Release them at one time.

Best regards,

Bill
