How do single-space and cross-space releases differ?
This page refers to the advanced planning features that are only available as part of Jira Cloud Premium and Enterprise.
Plans in Jira can use two different types of releases: single-space and cross-space.
Single-space releases are the same as those found in spaces outside of your plan. In order to use releases from team-managed spaces in your plan, they need to be enabled first.
Plans also has cross-space releases which align multiple single-space releases in your plan to one unified date, but can’t be saved outside of your plan.
A cross-space release lets you align and track several single-space releases as one release across different work streams. Cross-space releases appear on your timeline in the same way as single-space releases.
Cross-space releases are only used for planning purposes inside your plan. They can’t be viewed or edited in spaces.
