To complete the promotion: Lifecycle Center Deployment Manager

The external merge is complete in source control. Complete the promotion before promoting additional changes to or from the affected stage. For metadata changes, wait until delayed events appear in Lifecycle Center before you continue.

  1. Go to the Pipelines tab and select your pipeline.
  2. On the stage that is out of sync, click Complete Promotion.
  3. If you haven’t logged in to the environment for that pipeline stage from within Lifecycle Center, complete the login process.
  4. In the Promotion Options window, select Promote now, the changes to promote and the Apex tests to run. See Promotion Options.
  5. Click Promote.
    Lifecycle Center deploys the externally merged changes to the environment associated with the stage.

To complete the promotion from the command line instead, run sf devops promotion complete. See Quick Start: Use Salesforce CLI with Lifecycle Center.
