KB: Project Releaser offers only the Preview command

Solution Details Copy Link Copied

When one of the output data to be generated is disabled in the Details control of the Project Releaser, the Prepare and Release commands change to Preview and Explore.

This is expected behavior, as the output data generated for a project release must be controlled by configuring them in the Output Job file. You should disable outputs in the Output Job file if you don't need them for release. However, the Project Releaser allows you to disable outputs temporarily to generate only a set of output data for review.

If we allow releasing the project by changing the configuration in the Project Releaser, it will be impossible to track why a specific set of outputs was released. It is not possible to track such changes in the version control.
