### Statuspage updates <a href="#statuspageupdates" id="statuspageupdates"></a>

*(1 week before the release)*

On the Fairmarkit Statuspage (<https://fairmarkit.statuspage.io/>), we post a high-level overview of the upcoming release one week before it is released. This provides you with insight into the release and gives you time to reach out and ask questions.

(Day of the release)

On release day, [release notes](/release-notes/release-notes/buyers.md) are published to the documentation ([docs.fairmarkit.com](http://docs.fairmarkit.com/)), highlighting all changes in a release. Additionally, documentation is also available for more information about the features.

### Feature rollouts <a href="#featurerollouts" id="featurerollouts"></a>

We take a staged rolled-out approach for significant new features and control access with a configuration. This allows you to collaborate with your Fairmarkit team to learn about the feature changes in advance and determine the optimal timing for adoption.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.fairmarkit.com/release-notes/terms-and-policies/product-release-communications.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
