Pattern-based feature branch deployments
Pattern-based branch deployments allow you to automatically deploy branches that match a
specific pattern to Amplify. Product teams using feature branch or GitFlow workflows for
their releases, can now define patterns such as release** to automatically deploy Git
branches that begin with ‘release’ to a shareable URL.
-
Choose App settings, then Branch settings.
-
On the Branch settings page, choose Edit.
-
Select Branch autodetection to automatically connect branches to Amplify that match a pattern set.
-
In the Branch autodetection - patterns box, enter the patterns for automatically deploying branches.
-
*– Deploys all branches in your repository. -
release*– Deploys all branches that begin with the word ‘release'. -
release*/– Deploys all branches that match a ‘release /’ pattern. -

release*, feature*.
