Method to confirm production deployments with manual intervention

[ldileonardo]

Hi,

We use turbo-repo as a mono-repo and we have code that deploys to another third party platform in parallel to a commit into a given branch.
Ideally for production we have some way to have it pause and require a manual confirmation prior to deployment so we can review the results of the parallel deployments first before letting the production deployment through.

Thanks.

Hey @ldileonardo. You can do this with GitHub Actions or other workflow tools. This guide has a general outline with links to more specific instructions for GitHub Actions and Bitbucket Pipelines: https://vercel.com/guides/using-vercel-cli-for-custom-workflows

You can set Ignored Build Step to Don't build anything if you want to disable automatic deployment and rely entirely on your custom workflow. Or you can set it to Only build preview if you want to keep automatic preview deployments and only use your custom workflow for production.

Alternatively, you can use git.deploymentEnabled in a vercel.json file to disable automatic deployment for individual branches or for the whole project.
