Human intervention

[ronaldvanderrest]

Is there any way to include human intervention in alle pipeline, e.g. for approvals before deploying etc?

Only human intervention is to remove triggers from a job, so that only a human or API call can trigger a job, afaik.

As part of this human interaction, you can also use the email resource to send a message before going into the job that has triggers turned off.
https://github.com/pivotal-cf/email-resource. The are other resources for other types of messaging systems such as SLACK https://github.com/cloudfoundry-community/slack-notification-resource.

The actual approval workflow seems to be custom work since it is usually industry dependent on what needs to be done for the approval cycle.

More generally, if a manual trigger is not sufficient for your purposes, you can create a custom resource to request and receive approval from whatever change control tool your org uses.

I'm closing this out as we've hopefully answered your question. A better place for general questions about Concourse (as opposed to this tutorial about it) is the Concourse team on Slack or GitHub issues for the Concourse project itself.

Good luck!
