# Link changelog posts to requests

> Connect completed requests to changelog entries so customers see what shipped.

Linking requests to a changelog entry closes the loop: voters and commenters can see that their feedback shipped.

## Which requests can be linked

Only requests in statuses eligible for the changelog can be linked. By default that includes **Completed**. A request can be linked to at most one changelog entry. Requests already linked elsewhere do not appear in the picker.

## Link requests to an entry

1. Open **Changelog** in the staff app and edit an entry.
2. Open **Link completed requests**.
3. Search by title if needed.
4. Select the requests to include (use **Select all** / **Unselect all** when helpful).
5. Confirm. Linked items appear under **Built from the following requests**.

Complete and publish the changelog entry when the announcement is ready.

## What customers see

On the portal changelog entry page, customers can review the post and the linked requests. Under **Settings → Feedback portal → Voting**, you can show vote counts for those linked completed tasks on the changelog entry page.

## Best practices

* Move work to **Completed** before linking so the eligible list stays accurate.
* Link the specific requests that motivated the release—not unrelated backlog.
* Prefer one focused changelog post with a clear set of linked items over many tiny posts.
* After publishing, consider whether those completed items should still appear on the public Roadmap tab (**Statuses to show**).
