Completing a project in Linear creates a changelog draft in Productlane, with the recently completed issues already grouped by label. Release Intelligence can write the draft for you, and with GitHub connected it also draws on merged pull requests and commits.
Lead with the one feature that matters most and give it the title image. The editor can create a cover image for you, either by AI generation from the entry title and content or from a template. A changelog without its own image shows a generated cover with your workspace name, the entry title, and the date. Use the delete button on the generated cover in the editor to remove it, and the changelog then shows no cover on the portal, widget, RSS feed, Slack posts, or API. Mention the smaller changes you shipped below it. Hover an image in the editor and pick Small, Medium, or Full from the size control on its bottom left corner. Full is the default and shows the image at its natural size, up to the post width. The portal and the widget show the size you picked.
Saving your draft
Drafts save a few seconds after you stop typing. A status next to the editor toolbar shows where the draft stands:
Saving... while a save runs
Unsaved changes when you have edits that have not saved yet
Saved Xmin ago once the save completes. Hover it for the exact time.
Click Save, or press Cmd/Ctrl + S, to save right away.
Drafts stay hidden from your public changelog until you publish them. To find the public link, open Settings > Changelog, where the Changelog switch publishes the page and shows the link.
Show changelogs in your app
The widget shows your two latest changelogs and a popup when you publish a new one, so customers read updates inside your product instead of their inbox.
Install the widget in your app.
Turn on the changelog options on the widget settings page.
Publish a changelog. The widget lists it and shows your users the popup.
To reach customers by email or Slack as well, see Broadcasts.
