Show or hide releases on your software project's timeline

This page is for software projects

To check whether you’re in a software or business project, select More actions (•••) next to the project name in either the header or the sidebar. At the bottom of the menu that opens, your project details will be shown.

Unless otherwise noted, the project timeline view is the same for both company-managed and team-managed projects.

When planning work for your team, you can show your project’s scheduled releases (also called fix versions) on your timeline.

Releases are enabled by default in company-managed projects. If you’re using a team-managed project, you need to first enable releases and versions. Learn how to enable releases and versions in team-managed projects.

To show or hide releases on your timeline:

  1. From your timeline, select View settings at the top-right of your view.

  2. Under the More details heading, select the Releases box.

Once turned on, you’ll see the your project’s releases above your work item schedule bars on the timeline:
