# Release Checklist
There are a few steps we need to take when cutting a new Prefect release; this document serves as a checklist for what needs to happen for a successful release:
- CHANGELOG.md section headers
- locally and push to Test PyPI
- Draft a new release in GitHub - typically we try to name them and include the changelog in the notes
git tag
locally, rebuild the distribution archives and usetwine upload dist/*
to upload to PyPIprefect-feedstock
conda-forge repo (although it could take hours); upon approval and merge, this will land the new release inconda-forge
as well. Alternatively, you can open a PR yourself to get the ball rolling- archive the new tagged release API documentation
That's it!
