Completing or rejecting a manual step
If a manual step is configured on a stage, the deployment pauses when it reaches the step, and you can either complete it or reject it if your role has the appropriate permissions. For example, if a user was assigned a task and completed it, you can complete the task in the pipeline to continue the deployment. Deployment Manager also sends you an email when there is a manual step in the pipeline. You can complete or reject a step either within the pipeline or through email.
Deployment Manager also generates a manual step if there are schema changes in the application package that the release manager must apply. For more information, see Schema changes in application packages.
To complete or reject a manual step within the deployment, do the following steps:-
To complete or reject a manual step from within an email, click either Accept or Reject.
-
To complete or reject a manual step in the pipeline,
-
If the pipeline is not open, in the navigation pane, click
, and then click the name of the pipeline. -
Accept or reject the step by doing one of the following actions:
- To resolve the task so that the deployment continues through the pipeline, click Complete.
- To reject the task so that the deployment does not proceed, click Reject.
-
- Understanding roles and users
Define roles and users to manage which users can access Deployment Manager and which features they can access. For example, you can create a role that does not permit users to delete pipelines for a specific application.
- Continuing or stopping a deployment by adding the Perform manual step task
Use manual steps so that users must take an action before a pipeline deployment can continue. Users can either accept the task to continue the deployment or reject the task to stop it.
