12/22/2025, 6:03 PMthis are totally separated capabilities but I will say you do not need Env protections if you use this
PePe Amengual
12/22/2025, 6:04 PMbut you can do both if you want but your users might hate you , since they require to approve two things...

Interesting... yea, this is what I wanted to try. Was hoping this would be possible to create more advanced deployment approval gates

12/22/2025, 6:10 PMwell, one thing that my action does that no other one do ( after extensive POC and research) is AND/OR logic of approvals, which is pretty much mandatory in Enterprise

12/22/2025, 6:10 PMyou can still gate the deployment using a issue event check instead of the Environment approval gate

12/22/2025, 6:13 PMdid you evaluate https://github.com/palantir/policy-bot

12/22/2025, 6:28 PMinteresting, I remember seen this but at the time , doing this at the status check sounded weird to me since since my app is for the deployment side of things where status checks are not available anymore

12/22/2025, 8:26 PMyou can see the limitation of 30 day Env approvals ( we have customers that take longer than that to deploy)

12/22/2025, 10:23 PMI would add a screenshot like this and it becomes immediately clear what the fundamental mechanism is

12/22/2025, 10:25 PMI can do that, I'm actually adding new diagrams as well
