Connecting another CI service to Release Management

Abstract

You can use Release Management even if you don't use Bitrise CI. All you need to do to take advantage of all Release Management features is to upload your app's binary as a release candidate.

You can use Release Management even if you don't use Bitrise CI. All you need to do to take advantage of all Release Management features is to upload your app's binary as a release candidate.

For now, using Release Management still requires a Bitrise CI project as it's the only way to set up a connected app. However, you don't have to run a single build if you don't want to: once the project is added, you can use Release Management exclusively, without Bitrise CI. In the near future, Release Management will become a fully standalone solution.

To connect your CI service to Release Management:

  1. Sign up for Bitrise and add a new Bitrise CI project.Adding a new project

  2. Connect an app in Release Management.

    This includes setting up your project's connection to App Store Connect and/or Google Play.

  3. Use our API to upload an installable artifact

  4. Select this artifact at the release candidate stage.
