Release schedule

View key dates for active, upcoming, and past releases.

The release schedule view shows key release dates for active, upcoming, and past releases in a calendar view. It can be accessed at the app level, which will show all releases for the app, or at the release level, which will surface key events only for the given release. The app level release schedule will also predict release cycles into the future, so you can better plan ahead for upcoming releases in the calendar year.

Runway will use your app's configured schedule cadence to predict upcoming release cycles if set, otherwise it will estimate key release cycle dates by analyzing timing patterns observed from past releases in Runway.

The following key release cycle events can be seen on the release schedule:

• Release kickoff dates

• Release submission dates

• Version release dates (Apple platforms only)

• Custom staged rollout dates

• Phased rollout dates

Pausing your release schedule

You can pause your release schedule at any point from the schedule view on any release.

Pausing your release schedule will prevent any scheduled release cycle automations (e.g. kickoff, submit, release) from occurring:

• Your scheduled release automations will appear as Paused under the release schedule view, and within the Automation tab of each release step

When you're ready to resume your schedule, click Resume schedule from the schedule view on your current release. Runway will resume the execution of any scheduled upcoming release lifecycle automations.

If pausing your schedule has caused an automation to miss its target date, you'll have to manually update to a new target date in the future in order for Runway to perform the automation. You can do this by going to Kickoff -> Edit release settings for the release.

Calendar integration capability

Runway offers an external calendar integration capability that will sync your Runway release calendar to an external calendar, for example, a Google calendar. Additionally, any custom events that are added to your external calendar will also be pulled in and displayed in Runway's release schedule calendar view.
