 ##### Sharing the App with Selected User Groups {#share}
 
 You can share your app with any user groups by selecting the **More Actions** > **Share with Groups** option from the **App Management** page. Sharing makes the app visible to groups that otherwise may not be able to see or access your app. Members of the group with which you have shared the app do not have automatic access. Instead, they can request access from the app's owner.

+These release notes cover changes made to the [Private Mendix Platform](/private-mendix-platform/) in version 2.7.
+
+## 2.7.0
+
+### Release date: July 3, 2026
+
+Version 2.7.0 of Private Mendix Platform introduces a number of new features, updates, and fixes.
+
+#### New Features
+
+##### Dynamic Role Management through Platform Roles and Resource Roles
+
+You can now manage your access permissions in a more granular way by using platform and resource roles. Roles with platform-wide permissions can make changes and take actions that affect the whole instance. Roles with resource-scoped permissions can take actions on a group level without affecting the whole platform. Permissions that can be managed through platform and resource roles include portal access, app creation, Marketplace management, Environment Details, Build Packages, and App Settings.
+
+##### SSO Integration for Dynamic Role Management
+
+To help safely onboard users from my the customer's IdP onto Private Mendix Platform, System Admins can configure default group and resource roles for new users logging in using SSO. New users are placed in the default group and role before they can be assigned their target role, for example, by using an external orchestration app. In this way, customers can carefully manage permissions for new users incoming from an external system.
+
+#### Improvements
+
+##### Deployment Enhancements
+
+To help you streamline your deployment process, we have provided the following enhancements for the **Environment Overview** and **Create Package** pages:
+
+* When creating a deployment package, you can now specify a tag description. The package version and tag are displayed on the Environment Overview page.
+* If you want to deploy and start your package immediately, you can enable the **Autodeploy** option during package creation.
+* When deploying a package to an environment, you can provide the required configuration by uploading a .yaml file, either manually or through a secret manager.
+* If an environment has a deployed package, you can promote the package to another environment (for example, from *Test* to *Acceptance*) by clicking **Promote** directly on the Environment Overview page.
+* You can reorder environments on the Environment Overview page.
+
+For more information, see [Deploying Your App](/private-mendix-platform/user-guide/#deploy).
+
+##### Enhanced Control over Studio Pro Download Options
+
+Administrators can now use the [Version Settings](/private-mendix-platform/reference-guide/admin/system/#version-settings) page to manage the download options for Studio Pro. If you do not want your users to be able to download Studio Pro or patch files directly from the user interface of Private Mendix Platform, you can hide the download option from the onboarding banner on the home page and **My Apps** pages. You can also hide the option to download Studio Pro, patch, or offline dependencies from the **Get Studio Pro** page, and provide any custom instruction that you want to share with your users.
+
+##### API Enhancements
+
+To support the new features of Private Mendix Platform, we have updated the following APIs:
+
+* Group
+* Pipeline
+* Project
+* Build
+* Deploy
+
+For more information, refer to [APIs for Private Mendix Platform](/apidocs-mxsdk/apidocs/private-platform/).
+
+##### UI and UX Improvements
