In addition to creating a Release Bundle v2 from builds, it is possible to create a Release Bundle from one or more existing Release Bundles. For example, this can be used when multiple development teams are working on different microservices, each of which has its own Release Bundle. When it comes time to release a new version of the entire product, the various Release Bundles for the microservices can be combined into a single Release Bundle containing the complete release.

To create a Release Bundle v2 from existing Release Bundles:

  1. In the Platform module, select Artifactory > Release Lifecycle.

  2. From the Actions menu, select Create Version from Release Bundles. The New Release Bundle Version window is displayed.

  3. In the Release Bundle Details tab, do the following:

    1. Enter a name for the Release Bundle. (If a Release Bundle was previously created from the selected build, its name will appear.)

    2. Enter the version number of the Release Bundle.

      Note

      Naming restrictions:

      • The name is limited to 128 characters (see Tip below).

      • The version is limited to 32 characters (see Tip below).

      • The name and version must begin with a letter, digit, or underscore.

      • The name must consist only of letters, digits, underscores, periods, and hyphens. The version supports these characters and also supports the plus sign (+).

      Tip

      If a longer Release Bundle name or version is required, use the REST API or the JFrog CLI instead.Create Release Bundle v2 Version

    3. [optional] Select a signing key. If you do not select a key, a default key (generated by Artifactory automatically) is used. See Create Signing Keys for Release Bundles (v2).

      Warning

      Make sure the signing key is valid. The operation will fail if the key has expired.
