**As** a user
**I want to** generate a changelog
**so that** I can share new features/bug fixes about our software with our users
**Acceptance criteria**

* Output should be markdown format (optional)
* Changelog should be grouped with work package type
* Work package order should be according to work package number
**Similar feature:** [https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/create-release-notes/](https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/create-release-notes/)
### Note from OpenProject team: Current situation
At Openproject, we generate our changelog and release notes from a versioned query such as [https://community.openproject.org/projects/openproject/work\_packages?query\_id=2721.](https://community.openproject.org/projects/openproject/work_packages?query_id=2721.) From there, it will find all work packages assigned to a particular software version.
This gets scripted to output each work package description and link in the changelog / release notes: [https://github.com/opf/openproject/tree/dev/docs/release-notes/11-2-0](https://github.com/opf/openproject/tree/dev/docs/release-notes/11-2-0) https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/create-release-notes/
