## Communications during release
The most common type of communication during a release is a customer advisory. Customer advisories are posted to both Message center and the Messages blade of the [Intune admin center](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2109431) shortly after Autopatch becomes aware of the new information.
