A ***release*** is a software delivery milestone, containing a collection of projects or packages enabling new or updated features/capabilities.  

Select ***Releases*** from the menu to view and define your releases.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Click on an existing release to open it. You can edit the folder for each release from the options menu on the right side of each row.

To view the latest [snapshot](https://docs.flexagon.com/flexdeploy-9-0-documentation/flexdeploy-users-guide/pipeline-release-management/release/release-execution.md) for the release, click on the snapshot name under ***Latest Snapshot*** for the target release.

The **All** tab shows all of the uncompleted releases that you have read access to. To also show completed releases, select the **Show Inactive** checkbox above the folder tree on the left.

The **Favorites** tab shows all releases that you have chosen to favorite, keeping them on a short list to find again later.

The **Recent** tab shows the last few releases that you have opened so that you can get back to them quickly.

# Viewing Folder Content

The **All** tab for Projects and Releases lists out content by folder. When navigating from the Projects or Releases menu items, only items of the given type will be shown. To show both Projects and Releases, change the type filter to all

. For quick filtering, use the main search field to filter by name, id, description, or tags.

## Saved Queries @Since 9.0.0.8

The :Filter:filter and :Sort:sort menus are available to manage and organize what content you’d like to see in the selected folder. The list is sorted alphabetically by default, with only active items. Available fields for sorting/filtering may change depending on whether you’re viewing Projects, Releases, or All content. Any Project-specific filters are discarded if the list is switched to show only Releases, and vice versa.

Any applied filters and sorts can be saved in a saved query. Open the saved queries menu to view and manage any saved queries available for whichever type is being viewed. A badge will be shown on the menu button if a saved query is currently applied. Save and discard options will be shown if any changes are made to the active query.

Saved queries will save any filters and sorts applied to the page from the filter/sort menus. They will not save the current selected folder, the Show Inactive checkbox state, or whatever basic filter is applied on the main search filter.
