Release Notes Customization

[SHANAVASH MOHAMED]

Is there a way to automate release notes and send that email notification.

I am curious to know Jira's release notes that would trigger an email to be sent out via email to a list of issues tagged in the releases.  Alternatively, if that information could be tabular column like below 

Issue Type	Issue Key	Status	Summary	Description	Assignee
Story	ABC - 123	ToDo	Test 1	Testing	XYZ
Task	ABC-789	In Progress	Test 8	Testing	xyz

Hello Team, 

I found the solution, you can achieve through the project level automation.

1. Create a New automation

2. When : Version Released

3. Look Up issue : JQL : fixVersion = "{{version.name}}"

4. Send Email : 

    To : Recipients

    Subject : Issues Released in Version {{version.name}}

    Content : 

Hi Team,

The version <b>{{version.name}}</b> has been released.

<table border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Issue Key</th>
<th>Summary</th>
<th>Description</th>
<th>Status</th>
<th>Assignee</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
{{#lookupIssues}}
<tr>
<td><a href="{{url}}">{{key}}</a></td>
<td>{{summary}}</td>
<td>{{description}}</td>
<td>{{status.name}}</td>
<td>{{assignee.displayName}}</td>
</tr>
{{/lookupIssues}}
</tbody>
</table>

Hi Shanavash,

I'm glad the Jira automation workaround worked for you.

For more flexible, visual management of email release notes, you might try our free app from Atlassian marketplace - "Free:(AI powered) Automated Release Notes & Reports for Jira".

It allows you to create attractive release notes without HTML coding through visual editor, supporting formats like Email, PDF, Word, Confluence, Slack, Markdown, PowerPoint, and more. You can automate notes via rules based on triggers like manual, version, sprint, or webhook.

Feel free to reach out for more info.

Thanks,
