How to automate a release with automated changelog

Hey guys,

I’m new with Gitlab and CI Runner.

The goal I want to reach is to automate a maven release with a automated changelog based on the git commits.

With the Release API I’m able to trigger a new release. This works fine:

Further I want a automated change log but I wonder how to use the API:

The latest order is on the bottom I see even it should based on git commits I see only No changes:

## v0.7.0 (2021-10-27)

No changes.

## v0.8.0 (2021-10-27)

No changes.

And at the end I wonder how to put the things together. The changelog into the release.

Has anybody a step-by-step instruction or an example?

Thanks,
Markus

HI there @abstract-thinking ,

Have you been able to sort this out?

I am at the exact same point right now.

Have a nice weekend!

Hi @marmitom,

I’m sorry I stopped at the moment working on this issue and come hopefully back end of this month.

Cheers,
Markus
