Create an action for an 'on Catalog item launch' policy
The on Catalog item launch trigger fires when an order form (stack request form) is launched for a catalog item. A policy that is triggered by the on Catalog item launch trigger can run a script or override a user-requested value (text values only).
Before you begin
- Role required: sn_cmp.cloud_governor or admin
- Optional: Create one or more cloud policy groups.
- Configure a cloud policy rule and associated conditions.
Procedure
In the Cloud Admin Portal, navigate to Govern > Policies.
Open a cloud policy and set the policy to the Draft state if needed.
Open the rule that should perform the action and then click New on the Policy Rule Actions related list.
On the popup, click Create for the type of action to perform, enter a unique and meaningful Action Name, and then fill in the form for the action.
