How to disable deployment concurrency control?

Question

We have a pipeline that automatically updates an Azure web site. If we push too fast to this repo then the deployment is paused. Is there a way to turn off the deployment concurrency control? Obviously we don't want multiple deployments to happen in parallel, but it's ok if it happens right after each other, since we pushed multiple commits (that each triggered the pipeline). I just expect it to deploy the last commit at the end.

Hi Hakan,

I'm afraid that it is not possible to disable this at the moment.

We have a feature request for the automatic resuming of paused deployment steps:

* https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BCLOUD-16304

As per the latest update from one of our product managers, this is something we plan to deliver in the future, but we don't have an ETA yet. You can add yourself as a watcher to that feature request (by selecting the Start watching this issue link) if you'd like to get notified via email on updates.

In the meantime, you can check the script that another customer developed (using our APIs) which checks for paused deployments, and in case the last deployment is paused, it triggers a new build:

* https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BCLOUD-16304?focusedCommentId=2589197&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-2589197

You can take a look, and if it would be helpful for you, you can adjust it to your use case.

Kind regards,
Theodora
