# Activities for following releases actor **(EXPERIMENT)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/127023) in GitLab 16.5 [with two flags](../../../administration/feature_flags.md) named `activity_pub` and `activity_pub_project`. Disabled by default. This feature is an [Experiment](../../../policy/experiment-beta-support.md).
FLAG:
On self-managed GitLab, by default this feature is not available. To make it available,
an administrator can [enable the feature flags](../../../administration/feature_flags.md)
named `activity_pub` and `activity_pub_project`.
On GitLab.com, this feature is not available.
The feature is not ready for production use.
This feature requires two feature flags:
- `activity_pub`: Enables or disables all ActivityPub-related features.
- `activity_pub_project`: Enables and disable ActivityPub features specific to
projects. Requires the `activity_pub` flag to also be enabled.
## Profile
The profile is this actor is a bit different from other actors. We don't want to
show activities for a given release, but instead the releases for a given project.
The profile endpoint is handled by `Projects::ReleasesController#index`
on the list of releases, and should reply with something like this:
```javascript
{
"@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
"id": PROJECT_RELEASES_URL,
"type": "Application",
"name": PROJECT_NAME + " releases",
"url": PROJECT_RELEASES_URL,
"content": PROJECT_DESCRIPTION,
"context": {
"id": PROJECT_URL,
"type": "Application",
"name": PROJECT_NAME,
"summary": PROJECT_DESCRIPTION,
"url": PROJECT_URL,
},
"outbox": PROJECT_RELEASES_OUTBOX_URL,
"inbox": null,
}
```
## Outbox
The release actor is relatively simple: the only activity happening is the
**Create release** event.
```javascript
{
"id": PROJECT_RELEASES_OUTBOX_URL#release_id,
"type": "Create",
"to": [
"https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public"
],
"actor": {
"id": USER_PROFILE_URL,
"type": "Person",
"name": USER_NAME,
"url": USER_PROFILE_URL,
},
"object": {
"id": RELEASE_URL,
"type": "Application",
"name": RELEASE_TITLE,
"url": RELEASE_URL,
"content": RELEASE_DESCRIPTION,
"context": {
"id": PROJECT_URL,
"type": "Application",
"name": PROJECT_NAME,
"summary": PROJECT_DESCRIPTION,
"url": PROJECT_URL,
},
},
}
```
