Enable Pipeline Templates
Enable the pipeline templates feature in Spinnaker.
You can share these templates with your teams within a single application, across different applications, or even across different deployments of Spinnaker itself.
Templates can be managed using
spin
or the UI. To manage templates through the UI, enable the requisite feature flag: hal config features edit --managed-pipeline-templates-v2-ui true
Note: You can use
spin
CLI to manage pipelines and pipeline templates, but first you need to install it .
