Upcoming 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.

Beginning November 18, Render will apply your existing preview mode to all PRs in a stack:

  • Automatic: Render will create previews for each PR in the stack, except for any that include [skip preview] in their title.
  • Manual: Render will create previews only for PRs in the stack that include [render preview] in their title.

Each preview creates new resources that are billed according to their compute plans and other specs. If you use automatic previews, this change might increase your preview-related costs.
