Get a release
Releases group shipped work and carry a changelog. Read a single release by id.
This route serves workspace releases only. The id of a project release returns 404 here. Read it with Get a project release instead.
Path parameters
slug:requiredstringThe workspace slug. It appears in your Plane URLs. In https://app.plane.so/my-team/projects/, the slug is my-team.
pk:requiredstring (uuid)The release id.
Response shaping
fields:optionalstringComma-separated list of fields to return. Fields you don't request are left out of the response instead of coming back as null. id is always included. Pass all to get every requestable field. An unknown field name returns 400. See Sparse fields.
Requestable here: created_at, created_by_id, description_html, description_id, external_id, external_source, id, is_latest, is_prerelease, label_ids, lead_id, name, project_id, release_date, status, tag_id, target_date, updated_at, updated_by_id.
expand:optionalstringComma-separated relations to embed: lead, tag.
Expanded objects get their own key: ?expand=state keeps state_id and adds a state object next to it. ?fields= and ?expand= work independently. Naming a relation in ?fields= returns 400, and field filtering never removes an expanded object. See Expanding relations.
