Managing environments for deployment

You can create environments and secure those environments with deployment protection rules. A job that references an environment must follow any protection rules for the environment before running or accessing the environment's secrets.

この機能を使用できるユーザーについて

Repository owners

環境、環境シークレット、およびデプロイ保護ルールは、現在のすべての GitHub プランのパブリック リポジトリで使用できます。 ブロンズ、シルバー、ゴールドなどの従来のプランでは使用できません。 プライベートまたは内部リポジトリ内の環境、環境のシークレット、デプロイ ブランチにアクセスするには、GitHub Pro、GitHub Team または GitHub Enterprise を使う必要があります。 GitHub Free プラン、GitHub Pro プラン、または GitHub Team プランを使用している場合、待機タイマーや必須のレビュー担当者など、他のデプロイ保護ルールはパブリック リポジトリでのみ使用できます。

About environments

Environments are used to describe a general deployment target like production, staging, or development. When a GitHub Actions workflow deploys to an environment, the environment is displayed on the main page of the repository. For more information about viewing deployments to environments, see "デプロイ履歴の表示."

You can configure environments with protection rules and secrets. When a workflow job references an environment, the job won't start until all of the environment's protection rules pass. A job also cannot access secrets that are defined in an environment until all the deployment protection rules pass.

Optionally, you can bypass an environment's protection rules and force all pending jobs referencing the environment to proceed. For more information, see "デプロイメントのレビュー."

Note: Users with GitHub Free plans can only configure environments for public repositories. If you convert a repository from public to private, any configured protection rules or environment secrets will be ignored, and you will not be able to configure any environments. If you convert your repository back to public, you will have access to any previously configured protection rules and environment secrets.

Organizations with GitHub Team and users with GitHub Pro can configure environments for private repositories. For more information, see "GitHub のプラン."

Deployment protection rules

Deployment protection rules require specific conditions to pass before a job referencing the environment can proceed. You can use deployment protection rules to require a manual approval, delay a job, or restrict the environment to certain branches. You can also create and implement custom protection rules powered by GitHub Apps to use third-party systems to control deployments referencing environments configured on GitHub.com.

Third-party systems can be observability systems, change management systems, code quality systems, or other manual configurations that you use to assess readiness before deployments are safely rolled out to environments.

注: 任意の数の GitHub Apps ベースのデプロイ保護規則をリポジトリにインストールできます。 ただし、どの環境でも、同時に有効にできるデプロイ保護規則は最大 6 つです。

Required reviewers

Use required reviewers to require a specific person or team to approve workflow jobs that reference the environment. You can list up to six users or teams as reviewers. The reviewers must have at least read access to the repository. Only one of the required reviewers needs to approve the job for it to proceed.

You also have the option to prevent self-reviews for deployments to protected environments. If you enable this setting, users who initiate a deployment cannot approve the deployment job, even if they are a required reviewer. This ensures that deployments to protected environments are always reviewed by more than one person.

For more information on reviewing jobs that reference an environment with required reviewers, see "デプロイメントのレビュー."

Note: If you are on a GitHub Free, GitHub Pro, or GitHub Team plan, required reviewers are only available for public repositories.

Wait timer

Use a wait timer to delay a job for a specific amount of time after the job is initially triggered. The time (in minutes) must be an integer between 1 and 43,200 (30 days).

Note: If you are on a GitHub Free, GitHub Pro, or GitHub Team plan, wait timers are only available for public repositories.

Deployment branches and tags

Use deployment branches and tags to restrict which branches and tags can deploy to the environment. Below are the options for deployment branches and tags for an environment:

  • No restriction: No restriction on which branch or tag can deploy to the environment.

  • Protected branches only: Only branches with branch protection rules enabled can deploy to the environment. If no branch protection rules are defined for any branch in the repository, then all branches can deploy. For more information about branch protection rules, see "保護されたブランチについて."

    Note: Deployment workflow runs triggered by tags with the same name as a protected branch and forks with branches that match the protected branch name cannot deploy to the environment.

  • Selected branches and tags: Only branches and tags that match your specified name patterns can deploy to the environment.

    If you specify releases/* as a deployment branch or tag rule, only a branch or tag whose name begins with releases/ can deploy to the environment. (Wildcard characters will not match /. To match branches or tags that begin with release/ and contain an additional single slash, use release/*/*.) If you add main as a branch rule, a branch named main can also deploy to the environment. For more information about syntax options for deployment branches, see the Ruby File.fnmatch documentation.

    注: 名前パターンは、ブランチまたはタグ用に個別に構成する必要があります。

Note: Deployment branches and tags are available for all public repositories. For users on GitHub Pro or GitHub Team plans, deployment branches and tags are also available for private repositories.

Allow administrators to bypass configured protection rules

By default, administrators can bypass the protection rules and force deployments to specific environments. For more information, see "デプロイメントのレビュー."

Alternatively, you can configure environments to disallow bypassing the protection rules for all deployments to the environment.

Note: Allowing administrators to bypass protection rules is only available for public repositories for users on GitHub Free, GitHub Pro, and GitHub Team plans.

Custom deployment protection rules

注: 現在、カスタム デプロイ保護規則はパブリック ベータ版であり、変更される可能性があります。

独自のカスタム保護規則を有効にして、サードパーティ サービスを使ったデプロイを制御できます。 たとえば、Datadog、Honeycomb、ServiceNow などのサービスを使って、GitHub.com へのデプロイに対して自動承認を提供できます。 For more information, see "カスタム デプロイ保護規則の作成".

Once custom deployment protection rules have been created and installed on a repository, you can enable the custom deployment protection rule for any environment in the repository. For more information about configuring and enabling custom deployment protection rules, see "カスタム デプロイ保護規則の構成."

Note: Custom deployment protection rules are only available for public repositories for users on GitHub Free, GitHub Pro, and GitHub Team plans.

Environment secrets

Secrets stored in an environment are only available to workflow jobs that reference the environment. If the environment requires approval, a job cannot access environment secrets until one of the required reviewers approves it. For more information about secrets, see "GitHub Actions でのシークレットの使用."

Notes:

  • Workflows that run on self-hosted runners are not run in an isolated container, even if they use environments. Environment secrets should be treated with the same level of security as repository and organization secrets. For more information, see "GitHub Actions のセキュリティ強化."
  • Environment secrets are only available in public repositories if you are using GitHub Free. For access to environment secrets in private or internal repositories, you must use GitHub Pro, GitHub Team, or GitHub Enterprise. For more information on switching your plan, see "アカウントのプランをアップグレードする."

Environment variables

Variables stored in an environment are only available to workflow jobs that reference the environment. These variables are only accessible using the vars context. For more information, see "変数."

Note: Environment variables are available for all public repositories. For users on GitHub Pro or GitHub Team plans, environment variables are also available for private repositories.

How environments relate to deployments

環境を参照するワークフロー ジョブが実行されると、environment プロパティに環境の名前が設定された展開オブジェクトが作成されます。 ワークフローが進行すると、environment プロパティに環境の名前、environment_url プロパティに環境の URL (ワークフローで指定されている場合)、および state プロパティにジョブの状態が設定された展開状態オブジェクトも作成されます。

You can access these objects through the REST API or GraphQL API. You can also subscribe to these webhook events. For more information, see "リポジトリの REST API エンドポイント," "オブジェクト" (GraphQL API), or "Webhook のイベントとペイロード."
