Use the Release Bundle v2 Promotions Kanban Board

The kanban board provides a visual representation of the versions that exist for the selected Release Bundle and their current location in your release lifecycle. Use the kanban board to promote Release Bundle versions between environments and to access the version timeline.Environments

To open the promotions kanban board:

In the Application module, go to Artifactory > Release Lifecycle. The dashboard is displayed.
Click the row for the relevant Release Bundle to display its kanban board.

Release Bundle versions appear in the Unassigned category initially after they are created. The card for each version contains the version number, the latest promotion performed on the version, and the date & time when the version was created/promoted.

As the Release Bundle version is promoted to other environments, its kanban card moves under the relevant category. Icons indicate which type of promotion was performed (copy artifacts or move artifacts):

In the example shown above, cards for various versions of the Release Bundle named Green Pizza are displayed. As can be seen, each version is located in a different environment, each of which represents a distinct stage in the release lifecycle. In this example, version 4.1.10 has been promoted to the QA environment while versions 4.1.9, 4.1.12, and 4.1.17 have been promoted to PROD. A Release Bundle version can appear in only one environment at a time.Environments

Failed promotions, such as the promotion of version 4.1.15 from DEV to PROD in the example above, are marked with an error banner, as shown below.

Banners are also used to show operations in progress, such as Release Bundle version creation or promotion.
