Role required: admin or app_engine_admin

About this task

Deploying apps through your pipelines requires a certain amount of processing power. Depending on the needs of your organization, you may want to schedule deployments to happen when less processing power is needed elsewhere or when it's generally more convenient.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to All > App Engine > Administration > App Engine Management Center.
  2. On the Requests page, select the deployment request for an application that is ready to go to your production environment.
  3. Select Deploy app.
  4. Either deploy your app now or set up a future deployment time.
    • To deploy now, select Deploy.
    • To deploy in the future, select Schedule for later.
  5. (Optional) If you scheduled the deployment for later, use the date and time picker to select when you want your app to deploy, select OK, and select Deploy.
    The Activity stream shows the deployment details and the version of the app that will be deployed at the selected date and time. The app is deployed within fifteen minutes of the selected deployment time. If you want to change this time frame, update how often the deployment workflow checks for a scheduled deployment record by navigating to All > System Definition > Scheduled Jobs > Scheduled Deployments.
  6. Select Save.
