# Releases API **(FREE)**
> - Release Evidences were [introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/26019) in GitLab 12.5.
> - `description_html` became an opt-in field [with GitLab 13.12 for performance reasons](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/299447).
Please pass the `include_html_description` query string parameter if you need it.
> - [The permission model for create, update and delete actions was fixed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/327505) in GitLab 14.1.
See [Release permissions](../../user/project/releases/index.md#release-permissions) for more information.
Use this API to manipulate GitLab [Release](../../user/project/releases/index.md)
entries. For manipulating links as a release asset, see [Release Links API](links.md).
## Authentication
For authentication, the Releases API accepts either:
- A [Personal Access Token](../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md) using the
`PRIVATE-TOKEN` header.
- The [GitLab CI/CD job token](../../ci/jobs/ci_job_token.md) `$CI_JOB_TOKEN` using
the `JOB-TOKEN` header.
## List Releases
> - [Changed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/72448) to allow for `JOB-TOKEN` in GitLab 14.5.
<!--- start_remove The following content will be removed on remove_date: '2023-08-22' -->
> - The `external` field in Release Links was [deprecated](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/388975) in GitLab 15.9
and [removed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/112490) in 16.0.

## Download a release asset
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/358188) in GitLab 15.4.
Download a release asset file by making a request with the following format:
```plaintext
GET /projects/:id/releases/:tag_name/downloads/:direct_asset_path
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|----------------------------| -------------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `id` | integer/string | yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](../rest/index.md#namespaced-path-encoding). |
| `tag_name` | string | yes | The Git tag the release is associated with. |
| `filepath` | string | yes | Deprecated: Use `direct_asset_path` instead. |
| `direct_asset_path` | string | yes | Path to the release asset file as specified when [creating](links.md#create-a-release-link) or [updating](links.md#update-a-release-link) its link. |
Example request:
```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/24/releases/v0.1/downloads/bin/asset.exe"
```
### Get the latest release
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/358188) in GitLab 15.4.
Latest release information is accessible through a permanent API URL.
The format of the URL is:
```plaintext
GET /projects/:id/releases/permalink/latest
```
To call any other GET API that requires a release tag, append a suffix to the `permalink/latest` API path.
For example, to get latest [release evidence](#collect-release-evidence) you can use:
```plaintext
GET /projects/:id/releases/permalink/latest/evidence
```
Another example is [downloading an asset](#download-a-release-asset) of the latest release, for which you can use:
```plaintext
GET /projects/:id/releases/permalink/latest/downloads/bin/asset.exe
```
#### Sorting preferences
By default, GitLab fetches the release using `released_at` time. The use of the query parameter
`?order_by=released_at` is optional, and support for `?order_by=semver` is tracked [in issue 352945](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/352945).

### Group milestones **(PREMIUM SELF)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/235391) in GitLab 13.5.
Group milestones associated with the project may be specified in the `milestones`
array for [Create a release](#create-a-release) and [Update a release](#update-a-release)
API calls. Only milestones associated with the project's group may be specified, and
adding milestones for ancestor groups raises an error.
