## About automatically generated release notes

Automatically generated release notes provide an automated alternative to manually writing release notes for your {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} releases. With automatically generated release notes, you can quickly generate an overview of the contents of a release. You can also customize your automated release notes, using labels to create custom categories to organize pull requests you want to include, and exclude certain labels and users from appearing in the output.

## Search syntax for searching releases in a repository
23
+
24
+
You can provide text in your search query which will be matched against the title, body, and tag of the repository's releases. You can also combine the following qualifiers to target specific releases.
25
+
26
+
| Qualifier | Example
27
+
| ------------- | -------------
28
+
| `draft:true` | **draft:true** will only match draft releases.
29
+
| `draft:false` | **draft:false** will only match published releases.
30
+
| <code>tag:<em>TAG</em></code> | **tag:v1** matches a release with the v1 tag and any minor or patch versions within v1, such as v1.0, v1.2, and v1.2.5.
31
+
| <code>created:<em>DATE</em></code> | **created:2021** will match releases created during 2021. You can also provide date ranges. For more information, see "[Understanding the search syntax](/search-github/getting-started-with-searching-on-github/understanding-the-search-syntax#query-for-dates)."
