Run the Pipeline

We have 5 stages as Source, Build, Staging, ApproveChangeSet and ExecuteChangeSet.
After the Build & Staging (after creating the CloudFormation ChangeSet), the pipeline is waiting on the manual approval.

Approval process

Based on our email configured in SNS Topic: Subscription, email notification will be sent as follows and the user can launch the URL provided for Approve or Reject and approve it.

Once the Manual approval is completed, ExecuteChangeSet stage will be executed and the Lambda function is created through CloudFormation template.
