Infisical uses rolling release channels to deliver new features, security fixes, and improvements with different update frequencies. This system allows you to balance getting the latest features with maintaining stability in your deployment environment.

What are release channels?

Release channels define different schedules under which Infisical makes new releases available for you to deploy. Each channel operates on its own cadence, allowing you to choose how frequently you want to update your self-hosted deployment while balancing access to the latest features with your organization’s stability requirements.

Available Channels

Infisical provides two distinct release channels with different update frequencies and stability profiles.
  • Update Frequency: Daily builds during weekdays (Monday-Friday)
  • Version Tags: vX.Y.Z-nightly-YYYYMMDD (e.g., v0.146.0-nightly-20250423)
  • Multiple Daily Builds: If multiple nightly builds are created on the same day, they are numbered incrementally: vX.Y.Z-nightly-YYYYMMDD.1, vX.Y.Z-nightly-YYYYMMDD.2, etc.
  • Stability: Latest features with standard CI/CD testing
  • Release Process: Built from main branch after all automated tests pass
  • Intended Audience: Development environments & early adopters
Best for:
  • Organizations with flexible change management
  • Teams that want to test new features before they are made available via stable release channel

  • Access to latest features immediately

Schedule Note: Target dates are approximate and subject to change based on critical issues, security updates, or maintenance requirements.
