Approving/rejecting a pipeline execution

You can add an approval step to your pipeline to request approval from an individual or group. The approval step enables you to pause the pipeline execution until manual approval is received.

You must be a designated approver, either individually or as part of a group, to approve or reject a pipeline stage execution.

To approve or reject a pipeline stage, if you are an approver:

  1. From the CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS Home page, select one of the following:

    • Lightning bolt Actions, to the left of the user settings

    • Orchestration  Builds

    • Orchestration  Commits  Post-merged

    • Orchestration  Commits  Pre-merged

  2. Select a Group, Pipeline, Branch, and/or Duration to filter actions.

  3. Select a pipeline with a WAITING For Approval status.

  4. Select the pipeline stage, and then select APPROVE.
