Overrides V2

info

Currently, this is a beta feature and is behind the feature flag, CDS_SERVICE_OVERRIDES_2_0. Contact Harness Support to enable the feature.

Harness has introduced an enhanced experience for service, environment, and infrastructure overrides in Continuous Delivery (CD). A new page, named Overrides, is added in Deployments. In Overrides, you can define overrides for services, environments, and infrastructures.

Overrides can be defined at project, organization, and account levels.

In Account Settings > Account Resources > Continuous Deployment, set the Enable Service Override V2 to true for the enhanced overrides experience.

note

For information on overrides V1, go to Services and environments basics.

Limitations

  • Runtime inputs are not supported for Infrastructure Specific and Service & Infrastructure Specific variables.

Migrating to overrides V2

Currently, Harness migrates the existing override configuration to the new version using back-end APIs. The existing override scope, or scope with all child scopes, are migrated based on your requirements.

Harness anticipates adding a Migrate button in the UI to migrate to the new override configuration in the future.
