Triggering CD

Select an image to deploy and then click Deploy to trigger the CD pipeline.
The currently deployed images are tagged as Active on <Environment name>.

Manual Approval for Deployment

When manual approval is enabled for the deployment pipeline, you are required to request image approval before each deployment. Alternatively, you can only deploy images that have already been approved once.
When no approved image is available or if the image is already deployed, you will not see any image available for deployment upon clicking the Select Image button.

    Navigate to Build & Deploy page, and click on the Approval for deployment button.

    Click on Request Approval button present on the image for which you want to request approval and the click on Submit Request.

Approvers for Deployment

By default, super admin users are considered as the default approvers. However, any user can be granted approver permission from the user-access section.
All users with Approver permission for the specific application and environment are authorized to approve deployments.
Please note that the user who built the image and/or requested approval cannot self-approve, even if they have super-admin privileges.
Approver role can be provided to users via User Permissions
After the images have been approved, navigate to the Build and Deploy tab and click on Select Image. You will find all the approved images listed under the Approved Images section. From this section, you can select the desired approved image and deploy it to the environment.
The status of the current deployment can be viewed by clicking App Details that will show the Progressingstate for 1-2 minutes and then gradually shows Healthy state, based on the deployment strategy.
Here, triggering CD pipeline is successful and the deployment is in "Healthy" state.
