Approve Step/Gate | Approve the focused Step or Gate. | A Step or Gate that requires approval will generate a task in FlexDeploy which can be approved or rejected from the Tasks screen. This is simply a shortcut to approve the task directly from the dashboard. Optional notes can be provided during approval to provide more context for audit purposes.
| ||
Fullscreen | Open the Step or Gate details in a full-screen viewer. | Default keyboard shortcut ⌨️ is | ||
Override Step/Gate | Override (i.e Skip) the current Gate or Step. | Similar to Approve/Reject, Override can only be used by FD Administrators and those configured on the Override Role in the Gate or Step. | ||
Reject Step/Gate | Reject the Step or Gate. | See notes on Approve Step/Gate above | ||
Replay Step/Gate | Replays the Step or Gate. The Step or Gate must be in a failed state (Aborted, Failed, Rejected). | Requires the Manage Step Execution or Manage /Gate Execution permission. | ||
Skip Step/Gate | Skips the Step or Gate. Similar to replay the Step or Gate must be in a failed state. | Unlike Override, Skip simply requires the Requires Manage Step/Gate Execution permissions to be used permission. | ||

Status | Description | Notes |
---|---|---|
Aborted | The Step or Gate was aborted. | Note that users cannot directly abort Steps or Gates but rather abort the Stage, which indirectly results in an Aborted Step or Gate. |
Failed | The Step or Gate failed executing. | Perhaps the most broad status, Failed can occur in a number of ways:
|
Pending Approval | The Gate is awaiting an approval | Both Approval Gate and External Approval Gate will be in this status while waiting for the Approval. |
Pending Review | The Step is waiting for Review | Most commonly seen in the Predeploy and Predeploy All Steps |
Rejected | The Step has been Rejected by the User | |
Running | The Step or Gate is currently running | |
Out of Date | The Gate is Out of Date. This means that a newer snapshot was approved through the gate, so this one isn’t relevant anymore. You can make a new snapshot with the content from this one if you want to send it through the pipeline. | Due to the nature of Out of Date, it is only possible for Gates to be Out of Date. For a more detailed description of Out of Date and Pipeline Execution processing see here. |
Scheduled | The Step or Gate is currently scheduled | |
Skipped | The Step or Gate has been skipped due to a precondition being false | Note that skipped is only displayed in the case of a precondition. A user manually skipping or overriding a Gate or Step will show a status of Success. |
Success | The Step or Gate has completed successfully. |
