The first event always records the creation of the Release Bundle version. New events are added to the timeline as other actions are performed on the version (using the JFrog Platform UI, REST APIs, or JFrog CLI), such as promotion, distribution, export, and deletion. Users with access to evidence management receive timeline events for evidence generated automatically as Release Bundles are created, promoted, and distributed. Events are also added for external evidence attached to the Release Bundle.

Tip

You can select a different version of the Release Bundle from the version dropdown list on the timeline page.

Each timeline event contains a detailed status description and color indicator:

Timeline Events in Federated Environments

When working with Federated repositories as part of a multi-site environment, operations performed on a Release Bundle version on one Federation member are propagated to the timelines of the other members. This includes Release Bundle creation, promotion, and distribution.
