Manage Deployments
What is a Deployment?
The Deployment specifies the current version of an application deployed in an environment.
A deployment includes:
A Deployed Version/build number, which can be associated with an existing Jira Version.
Deployed Jira Issues.
Deployment Attributes, such as Release Notes and Artifact URL.

Why should you track your application deployments?
Read this article if you are not yet familiar with Deployment Tracking:
Manage Deployments

The content and the behavior of the deployment dialogs may be vary depending on the deployment settings done at application level.

Use the REST API
When possible, it is better to automate the deployment tracking by adapting your existing deployment scripts/pipelines (instead of using the UI):
Check available integrations here: Integrations
You can also find interesting resources here: Track Application Deployments

If you have permissions to manage applications, you can access the application deployment settings directly from here:
