Adding an Approval Stage
Approval stage pauses the deployment for a specified duration for manual decision from the approver. Approvers are notified of deployments that are pending manual approval. The default timeout period for approval is seven days after which the deployment fails. You can configure the manual approval stage to require more than one approval. Approvers can approve or reject deployments.
Each service in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) integrates with Identity and Access Management (IAM) for authentication and authorization. To grant users permission to approve a deployment, you must create a group, add users (approvers) to the group and define policies. For policy examples, see the Approval stage policies in Deployment Pipeline Policies.
