Disabling a loop

You can disable a loop to pause its activities and stop updates. You can enable it again from the Disabled tab whenever you need it.

Before you begin

You must have completed the following tasks:

  • Created a loop.

  • Ensured that you have administrative privileges in DevOps Loop.

About this task

When you disable a loop, the following connected capabilities within that loop are impacted:
  • Plan: Emails, alerts, and search functions for work item updates are disabled.
  • Control: The Plan-Control webhook is deactivated and all the information in the events (such as pull request, branch creation etc) stop flowing from Control to Plan.
  • Measure: Data flow from Control, Plan, Test and Build is interrupted and therefore value streams and dashboards no longer receive updates.

Procedure

  1. Log in to DevOps Loop.

    The Home page is displayed with the My Loops and Solutions tabs.

  2. Select the loop that you want to disable from the All Loops tab.
  3. Click the Settings icon and select Disable.

    The loop is disabled and moved to the Disabled tab.
