Example: An 'Approval' gate

The following example shows how to add an Approval gate called Approval_01 between two actions called Staging, and Production. The Staging action runs first, the Approval_01 gate second, and the Production action last. The Production action only runs if the Approval_01 gate is unlocked. The DependsOn property ensures that the Staging, Approval_01, and Production phases run in sequential order.

For more information about the Approval gate, see Requiring approvals on workflow runs.
