Send email when all steps have finished

Legacy Modelling

Hi,
I have a process where the last steps are running in parallel. How can arrange an email to be sent when all previous steps (including parallel running ones) have completed?

Hi Binh,

You can add a Send email step as the last step in your deployment process, set the Run condition to Always run and the Start trigger to Wait for the previous step to complete, then start.

This will ensure that the email step runs whether any of the other preceding steps succeed or fail.

I hope that helps!

Thank you and best regards,
Henrik

Hi,

I did place a send email step with the configuration as mentioned but what I find is that the email occurs when previous parallel steps still running.

e.g

Setup:
Step1 run in parallel
Step2 run in parallel
Step3 run in parallel
Send email when previous step finish.

Result:
Step1 is still running.
Step2 is still running.
Step3 finish
Send email

What I want is:
Step 1 finish
Step 2 finish
Step3 finish
Send email

Regards
Binh

Hi Binh,

What version of Octopus are you running? I’ve just tested your scenario (where step 3 finishes before steps 1 & 2) with the latest version and I can’t replicate the issue you are seeing.

Thank you and best regards,

Hmm, it’s not happening now. Maybe I didn’t set it up correctly (as I’m still developing the process) or I misread what was happening.

Thanks for the response.
