Release Coordinators should be able to create releases

Would it be possible to give the ability create releases to the sn_dpr_model.release_coordinator role?

 

So far, only the Release Admins and Product Managers can create releases.

 

Attempted to update the ACL for the release coordinator to create releases

but it's blocked by other UI builder pages and modals within the workspace after clicking "Create Release".

 

Please see if the product team can add this to enhancement patches.

Currently, Release Admins and Product Managers have the ability to create releases. If you want Release Coordinators to also have this access, you can assign the release_admin role as a sub-role of release_coordinator in the sys_user_role_contains table as a workaround. However, since we have created specific roles for specific functionalities, granting create release access to all roles deviates from the original role design purpose. The Release Coordinator’s primary responsibility is to coordinate release activities, not to administer or configure releases.

Hi @johannarami ,

A Release Coordinator can perform release activities such as completing phases, adding tasks, key dates, CIs, and CRs.

Whereas a Release User has read-only access across all releases, products, and the release calendar.
