Release notes

We use CI_PIPELINE_IID for versioning our builds and logs to DataDog. Unfortunately, it's difficult to query the pipelines by this id. In the Gitlab UI, we have to toggle the id viewed and scroll through pages to find it. The only id available in the DataDog integration is @ci.pipeline.id. It would be easier for us to correlate the logs with a pipeline in DataDog if we could show and search on a @ci.pipeline.iid field.

Does this feature require an audit event?
