We’re excited to roll out Releases x Review Workflows—a feature that ensures only approved content can be published. This automation takes the stress out of content approvals, helping developers and content teams release confidently without last-minute checks.
Here’s a refresher on what each feature does and why integrating them makes your publishing smoother than ever.
Releases in Strapi are your one-stop solution for bundling, scheduling, and managing content updates in a streamlined way. Instead of handling updates individually, Releases allow you to group entries, schedule them for specific dates, and keep track of what’s set to go live—all from one place.
With Releases, you can:
Review Workflows let you create custom review and approval processes tailored to your team’s needs. Whether it’s a quick editorial check or a detailed multi-stage review for legal compliance, Review Workflows keep your team on the same page, ensuring content passes all required approvals before publishing.
Key capabilities include:
Manual reviews are time-consuming and risky for larger teams and industries with strict standards. By combining the organizational power of Releases with the structured approvals of Review Workflows, Releases x Review Workflows ensures that no content is published without passing through the necessary review stages.
With this feature, you can say goodbye to manual checks, gain confidence in meeting compliance, and streamline team coordination by providing clear content status at a glance. Here’s how this integration simplifies your workflow and prevents last-minute hiccups.
Releases x Review Workflows simplifies your content workflow: 1. Set Required Approval Stages: Designate a stage (like “Reviewed by Legal”) that content must reach to be eligible for publishing. 2. Automated Stage Checks: The system verifies that every entry meets the required approval stage before publishing. 3. Block Unapproved Content: If content isn’t fully reviewed, the release is blocked, and an error message highlights what needs fixing. 4. Instant Visibility into Issues: See exactly which entries are holding up the release, making it easy to resolve.
This integration brings a smoother, safer release process. Each release is backed by the confidence that only content meeting all approval checks will go live. Clear error messages guide you to fix any issues before publishing, and automation reduces manual checks, freeing up your time for higher-value tasks.
With Releases x Review Workflows, you can focus on creating great content while the system ensures everything is properly approved. Get started today and experience how it makes publishing simpler, safer, and faster for your team!
We’re excited to roll out two new hosting regions on Strapi Cloud: Singapore (Asia) and Australia (Oceania). This addition to Strapi Cloud regions means faster, more reliable access for developers and teams building in the APAC region. By bringing Strapi Cloud’s infrastructure closer to home, we’re aiming to cut latency and boost performance so that your content reaches users as smoothly as possible.
These new regions are just one part of our commitment to making Strapi Cloud a truly global platform. Hosting your Strapi projects in APAC doesn’t just reduce wait times—it also means easier regional compliance and optimized workflows without worrying about data transit across continents. Whether you’re running a local startup or managing global content delivery, Strapi Cloud’s expanded reach gives you the tools to deploy content where it’s needed most.
We’re always listening to what the developer community needs and this expansion is a direct response to that. Let us know how these new regions improve your workflow and stay tuned as we continue to grow Strapi Cloud’s footprint worldwide!
With Strapi Cloud’s latest CLI updates, managing your cloud environments just got simpler. We're introducing two powerful new commands: strapi cloud environments
and link
, giving you more control over your projects directly from the command line. Designed with developer feedback in mind, these additions make it easier to track, connect, and deploy across multiple environments within your Strapi Cloud projects.
View All Environments with strapi cloud environments
The strapi cloud environments
(or strapi cloud environment list
) command lets you pull up a list of all environments associated with your Strapi Cloud projects tied to your authenticated user account. For developers managing multiple environments, this gives you a clear overview of every environment within your linked projects. For each environment, the following key details are displayed:
This command provides an at-a-glance view, helping you quickly assess the status and configuration of each environment within your Strapi Cloud projects.
Choose Your Deployment Environment with strapi deploy
The strapi deploy
command is now more flexible than ever. Once you’ve linked your local Strapi project to a Strapi Cloud project, you’ll be able to choose which environment to deploy to directly from the CLI. Run strapi deploy
, and the CLI will prompt you to select an environment. Alternatively, if you already know your target, you can use strapi deploy -e <environment>
(or strapi deploy --env <environment>
)to go straight to the environment of your choice without extra steps.
With these enhancements, we aim to streamline environment management and deployment workflows so you can focus more on building. We’re always on the lookout for ways to make the Strapi Cloud experience smoother and more developer-friendly. Let us know what you think of these new commands, and stay tuned for more updates!
