@Rahul G My client has Pega DM 5.5.6. We have used DM for many years but I am not aware of any scheduling deployment pipeline feature in PDM. I will be interested in knowing more about your use case.

We have a use case where we completely want to automate the deployment process from Dev till Prod.

Eg.. Lets consider a deployment was done from Dev to QA today and once testing is done QA can provide approval and post that the deployment to UAT starts testing is done in UAT this is achievable in Pega DM.

But since the Prod releases are scheduled eg.. if there is a release on coming weeks Sunday and we want to deploy to prod at 10 AM on Sunday, is there a feasibility to schedule release in such a manner, is this achievable in Pega DM?

Thanks.

@Rahul G Actually one of my team members was able to schedule and deploy using DM API from Jenkins. This is something you could try. If you want to do it in Pega, perhaps create a Job Scheduler and call DM API to deploy on a scheduled time.

@Rahul G the service should be available OOTB in DM API.

Are you suggesting to expose this as a service to one of our internal Pega environments and use this service to schedule the deployment pipeline?
