✨ What's New

  • Enhanced Release Details page
    The Release Details page has been refined to consolidate the Changes Applied and Application Deployed widgets into a single, unified Changes Deployed widget. This amalgamation simplifies the process of monitoring and tracking changes and applications implemented during a release. It provides a clearer understanding of which resources have been modified, the reasoning behind these alterations, and whether they were instigated due to overrides, images, or blueprints.
