Release Management roles and permissions
On Bitrise, Release managers are the only ones who can do any end-user-facing actions in Release Management. App admins can add other users as Release managers.
Release Management is open to all team members of an app's team. However, not all members can access all functions. To make sure your release process is in trusted hands, use the Release manager role.
