# DesRelease

A release is a published version of a design with additional generated files for manufacturing.

### Common Data Model

- [Hardware Project Release](https://w3id.org/altium/cdm/design/ProjectRelease) — Project Release captures an immutable snapshot of a PCB design project at a specific point in its lifecycle, packaging all design data, outputs, and metadata required for manufacturing, assembly, and downstream processes.

  - IRI: [`https://w3id.org/altium/cdm/design/ProjectRelease`](https://w3id.org/altium/cdm/design/ProjectRelease)
  - GRID: `grid:workspace:{workspace-id}:design:project-release/{id}`

### Returned By

[`desReleaseById`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/platform-api-docs/reference/design/operations/queries/des-release-by-id.md) query

### Member Of

[`DesReleaseConnection`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/platform-api-docs/reference/design/types/objects/des-release-connection.md) object · [`DesReleaseEdge`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/platform-api-docs/reference/design/types/objects/des-release-edge.md) object

### Interfaces

#### [`Node`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/platform-api-docs/reference/common/types/interfaces/node.md) interface

The node interface is implemented by entities that have a global unique identifier.

```graphql
type DesRelease implements Node {
  createdAt: DateTime!
  description: String!
  id: ID!
  manufacturePackages: [DesManufacturePackage!]! @deprecated
  releaseId: String!
  variants(
    where: DesReleaseVariantFilterInput
  ): [DesReleaseVariant!]!
}
```
