+# Release Process
+
+This document outlines the process for releasing a new version of this project.
+
+## Versioning
+
+This project uses [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/) and its version is
+automatically determined by [release-drafter](https://github.com/release-drafter/release-drafter)
+based on the labels of the pull requests merged into the `main` branch.
+
+See the [release-drafter configuration](../.github/release-drafter.yml) for more details.
+
+## Creating a New Release
+
+Every time a pull request is merged into the `main` branch, release-drafter will
+create a draft release or update the existing draft release in the [Releases](https://github.com/elastic/oblt-actions/releases) page.
+
+To create a new release you need to publish the existing draft release created by release-drafter.
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Make sure the [release-drafter workflow](../.github/workflows/release-drafter.yml) is finished before publishing the release.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> When a release is published, the [create-major-tag workflow](../.github/workflows/create-major-tag.yml)
+> will force push a new major tag in the format `vX` where `X` is the major version of the release.
+> For example, if the release is `v1.2.3` was published, the workflow will force push a new tag `v1` on the same commit.
