Hi all,

We’re happy to announce that the next release of AWX, version 24.3.1 is now available!

@fosterseth  
The awx image is missing on quay:  
[https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/15158](https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/15158)

The promotion has been failed due to missing `TAG_NAME`: [24.3.1 · ansible/awx@918d5b3 · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible/awx/actions/runs/8899885614/job/24440212487#step:3:2)
