# ContinueServiceDeployment
<a name="API_ContinueServiceDeployment"></a>

Continues or rolls back an Amazon ECS service deployment that is paused at a lifecycle hook.

When a service deployment reaches a lifecycle stage that has a `PAUSE` hook configured, the deployment pauses and waits for an explicit action. Use this API to either continue the deployment to the next stage or roll back to the previous service revision.

To find the `hookId` of the paused hook, call [DescribeServiceDeployments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeServiceDeployments.html) and inspect the `lifecycleHookDetails` field.

For more information, see [Continuing Amazon ECS service deployments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/continue-service-deployment.html) in the *Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide*.
