Schedule Override Role

The pipeline role that has privileges to override the gate in case of tests not passing defined qualifiersif required.  If not specified, only a FlexDeploy Administrator can override the gate. Optionally, use a Groovy expression to make this field dynamic based on some contextual value (e.g. a property defined on the pipeline, and specified on the release).

Precondition

An optional Groovy script which determines whether the gate or step is applicable during execution. The script has access to variables and methods listed in Pipeline Groovy Variables and Methods. You can find these variables and methods while using the Groovy Editor.

The script must return true if the gate is applicable, or false otherwise.  If no script is provided, the default is to return true (applicable).
