Projects let you create and manage your deployment processes, releases, and operations processes.Coordinating multiple projects
This guide covers scenarios where it is necessary to co-ordinate deployment between multiple projects and take some action that depends on their combined status.Deploy a release step
The deploy a release step allows you to trigger the deployment of a release of a project from another projectProject coordination code samples
Project coordination guide code samples that show how to perform various tasks covered in the guide.Project triggers
Project Triggers allow you to define unattended behavior for your project such as automatically deploying a release to an environment.Automatic release creation
Automatic release creation allows you to automatically create a new release when a new package is pushed to the built-in package repository.Deployment target triggers
Deployment target triggers allow you to define unattended behavior for your project that will cause an automatic deployment of a release into an environment.Scheduled deployment triggers
Automatic deployment triggers allow you to define unattended behavior for your project that will cause an automatic deployment of a release into an environment.Variables
