Today we added the possibility to sign up / sign in to Releases via Google and GitHub. Simply authenticate with your existing credentials and you are good to go. We may add additional providers in a future update.
Feature
We are excited to announce the introduction of "Teams". With this release, admins can now form and manage teams of any size.
Each workspace can have one team. There are no limitations on how many people can join a team – invite as many as you have. Invites are done via a unique invite-link that can be re-generated or disabled at any time.
Anybody with access to a workspace invite-link can join this workspace. Admins will be notified via email when a new member joined. There currently is no permissions or roles system in place. Only admins can remove members from a team.
In a future update, we may introduce a simple permissions / roles system that allows admins to define publish and delete rights to entries for specific users. Right now, every member of a team can publish and delete entries, has access to tags, subscribers, as well as to the workspace settings.
Today we would like to introduce a new feature called "GitHub Sync". If you keep your release notes on GitHub, changes are you have an open source package, an app or website or essentially anything that can be hosted on GitHub and shared with others.
Not everyone is on GitHub though. If you have a website, you can make use of our widget to show your release notes directly where your users are. Just keep updating your releases notes on GitHub and sync them with Releases anytime you like.
In a future update, we will add the option to auto-sync release notes. "GitHub Sync" is currently only available for public repositories.
To get started, head over to the "GitHub Sync" settings and connect your repository.
Today we shipped our widget and also added a sitemap to all public changelogs.
Widget
Use our widget to show the latest changelog entries directly within a website. No need for users to leave your website or platform. Implementation should not take longer than 2 minutes and is really straightforward.
To see a demo and setup instructions, log in to your account and head over to the "Widget" settings.
Sitemap
We also added a sitemap.xml to all changelogs. You can, for example, submit this sitemap to the Google Search Console or use it anyway you need. Just append /sitemap.xml at the end of your workspace url, e.g. example.com/sitemap.xml
