Field Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
Ticket Number Pattern | No | Pattern of the issues within the issue tracking system, used to associate FlexDeploy builds with particular issue(s) |
. For Jira, Azure Boards, GitLab, and GitHub, the pattern of tickets must be the |
project Key, followed by a dash (e.g. "MYPROJ-"). In Jira, all tickets created for this project are prefixed by this key. For other providers, this key isn't part of the ticket id in the external system, but is necessary in FlexDeploy for identifying the project name. For Redmine, the pattern can be whatever you like. Recommended is 'refs #, references #, and IssueID #', as these match the defaults for referencing issues in commits defined by Redmine. You can provide more than one pattern as comma-separated values. |

Note the bottom selection 'Auto-approve Tasks on Status'. You can configure an external approval at the application or folder level as seen below.
When creating your external approval, set the environment, default approval group and the external issue tracking system (Jira, in this case).
Once you configure your external approval, any activity will be held on that environment until the approval is given. The Auto-approve Tasks on Status selection will then naturally auto-approve any pending approvals if the Issue is moved to the selected status ('Done' in this case) or greater in the issue tracking system.
