Approval Role | The pipeline role which is responsible for approving or rejecting the task associated with this 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). When using a role script you can dynamically return a key/value pair. For example If not specified, only a FlexDeploy Administrator can approve or reject the gate. | ||
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). |
