Connecting another CI service to Release Management

You can use Release Management even if you don't use Bitrise CI. Upload your app's binary as a release candidate to access all Release Management features.

For now, using Release Management still requires a Bitrise CI project as it's the only way to set up a connected app. However, you don't have to run Bitrise CI builds: once the project is added, you can use Release Management without Bitrise CI. In the near future, Release Management will become a standalone solution.

To connect your CI service to Release Management:

  1. Sign up for Bitrise and add a new Bitrise CI project.

  2. Connect an app in Release Management.

    This includes setting up your project's connection to App Store Connect and/or Google Play.

  3. Use our API to upload an installable artifact.

  4. Select this artifact at the release candidate stage.
