Composite Step Templates

There are sets of common steps that we very often want to "bookend" all of our deployments with. One concrete example would be: sending out a Manual Intervention to confirm when all servers are confirmed live before stamping a new deployment in NewRelic.

Right now, everyone has to bake these steps into their own projects by adding the Manual Intervention step followed by the NewRelic Deployment Stamp step. If it were possible to create what I would call "Composite Step Templates" then I could define a reusable step template that was made up of other step templates. That way, instead of everyone having to repeat all of the possible steps in their own projects, they would simply include this one composite step and they'd be done.

Now, my composite example was only two steps to keep it simple, but you can imagine maybe a composite is made up of more than that. Or even imagine a change in policy where the Manual Intervention email has to include more information. Everyone has to repeat this stuff in all their projects and having the ability to put it into a composite step would alleviate all of that.

    <Sigh> Requested over 6 years ago... top voted request.... no love....

    If only octopus user voice was given the same treatment as the octopus help forums. (Responsive and helpful)

    Luckily I'm not holding my breath, but it would still be nice with an update if this is still planned or worked on. And to be clear, it would be a really nice feature.

    Could we please get an update on this? This suggestion has been around for a long time and it seems like this feature would be useful for a lot of people including myself.

    Is there a timeline? we have been waiting since two years

  • Bryan Roth commented  ·   ·  Report

    I see the status has changed to 'Planned' as of June 26, 2019. Does this mean there has been a set back since this was 'Started' back in January 2018? Are there any updates on this feature?

  • rstraszewski commented  ·   ·  Report

    Any information on progress? It was started over 1.5 year ago...

  • Daniel Wernle commented  ·   ·  Report

    We are evaluating Octopus and this feature is top on our wishlist

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Any progress yet? This feature would make our world a lot easier...

    We are also waiting for this feature. Same question as everyone else, when is the release?

  • rstraszewski commented  ·   ·  Report

    We are also waiting for this feature. Managing 200+ projects is very hard without this. Most tools we use, have something like this (for example Teamcity). Any ETA?

  • Tom Foster commented  ·   ·  Report

    Any updates on when this feature is slated to be released? I really like this feature in TeamCity and can be very useful in Octopus.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Really looking forward to this feature. It is a pretty big deal for us as we have a fair amount of projects.
