Releases view#

In the Releases view, you can manage Helm releases, which represent instances of Helm charts deployed in your Kubernetes cluster. Helm releases help you install, upgrade, and maintain applications easily. Helm is a package manager for Kubernetes that simplifies application deployment and management by using charts. See the official Helm documentation for details.

The Releases table lists available Helm releases. You can click the list items and open the details panel with comprehensive information and various options. The Namespace drop-down list filters the cluster objects by namespaces. You can also search for a specific item using the Search Releases input field.

You can resize and reorder the table columns. Drag the column border in the table header to change the width. To change the column position, drag its header left or right. Also, you can sort objects in ascending or descending order by clicking the header of a column and configure the column visibility. By default, the table consists of the following columns:

Column Description
Name The name of the Helm release.
Namespace The Kubernetes namespace in which the release is deployed.
Chart The Helm chart associated with the release.
Revision The revision number of the release.
Version The version of the Helm chart.
App Version The version of the application associated with the release.
Status The current status of the release.
