Queue Jumping in Netlify

Netlify build queue priority: Rapid deployment of critical updates

Netlify's enterprise and commercial accounts provide a convenient feature: manually elevate build tasks to the top of the queue. This feature is especially suitable for emergencies, such as bug fixes that require immediate deployment. The following will be explained in detail.

One of the major advantages of Netlify is its automatic build and deployment capabilities. For example, for a Jekyll website, the build command might be jekyll build . You just need to tell Netlify this command, and Netlify will automatically deploy after the build is successful.

The build commands are completely customized by you. It can be npm run build , calling the build command in package.json to execute custom scripts. Additionally, with the build plugin, you can have granular control over the build process (for example, run Sass easily). This is the charm of CI/CD!

Assuming you have a Git repository connected, the build is not limited to the main branch, but is for any branch. There are many benefits to this. First, your build process is likely to include testing as well, ensuring code quality. Second, Netlify provides a permalink for each push to the deployed version of that particular code version, which is like a pre-release environment for enhanced versions, where anyone who needs it can preview the website.

In a large project, multiple developers may work on multiple branches at the same time, submit code and run builds. Therefore, Netlify may need to handle a large number of build tasks, and your build tasks may be behind other tasks. This doesn't matter in most cases, but if your deployment preview needs to be ready for important meetings within two minutes, then it needs to be prioritized.

For teams using enterprise or commercial accounts, you can choose to promote your build task to the top of the queue and execute it immediately. Operator information is recorded, please use this feature with caution and keep teamwork collaborative.
