Selecting a release candidate

In the release candidate stage you can specify a release branch, and select a Workflow that can generate an .ipa or an .xcarchive file for iOS apps, or an .aab file for Android apps.

Once you select a branch and a Workflow, you can lock in the active build of that Workflow that will be used as the release candidate. By default, this is the latest build but you can lock in a different build instead.

To select a release candidate:

  1. Open your release.

  2. Select Release candidate on the left navigation bar.

  3. Under the Configuration section, click the Change button.

    This will open up the Configure release candidate window.
