Releasesby GlyphUpcoming service preview and preview environment support for GitHub stacked PRs
On November 18, 2026 , Render will begin supporting separate service previews and preview environments for each pull request in a GitHub PR stack: Currently, Render creates previews only for PRs that directly target your service's linked branch. This means that only the bottom PR in a stack can generate previews.
