Decouple release
Deploy a version and switch the feature on as a separate step.
Release a version, then turn it on separately
Wire feature flags into delivery so you can ship a version and decide when to turn it on. Flag changes pass through the same approvals as everything else you release, so toggling a feature in production is a governed action, not a side door. Separate deploy from release without leaving the platform.
The problem
When deploy and release are the same step, turning on a new feature means running another deployment. When they are split, the flag toggle usually lives in a separate tool with no approval chain and no connection to the delivery record. Either way, something that changes production behavior slips through outside your governed process.
Deploy a version and switch the feature on as a separate step.
Flag changes follow the same approvals as the rest of delivery.
Turning a feature on is a tracked, governed action rather than a side door.
Flags live alongside pipelines and deploys instead of in a separate silo.
Deploy the version with the new feature turned off.
A flag change goes through the same approval path as a release.
Once approved, enable the feature and track when it went live.
How it stays governed
Flag changes are evaluated as governed delivery actions against policy as code, the same rule set that applies to your deploys and releases. Toggling a feature in production is not a side door; it is a controlled step that must satisfy the same conditions as any other change you ship.
Every approved toggle writes once to a tamper-evident audit trail with the feature name, the timestamp, and the identity of who authorized it. You have a durable record of exactly when each feature went live in production and what approval preceded it.
Enabling a feature in production requires a person to sign off before the toggle takes effect. The change pauses for human review the same way a release does, so no feature reaches live users without explicit authorization.
Works with your stack
Flag toggles plug into the same pipeline and deploy connectors that drive the rest of your delivery flow, with approval routing through the same collaboration and ITSM channels.
Who it’s for
A team deploys a version with the new feature turned off, then requests the toggle when stakeholders are ready to proceed. The toggle goes through the same approval chain as the original deploy, with no separate tool to log into or process to follow.
Your compliance team requires an approval record for anything that changes what users see in production. Because flag toggles pass through the same governed delivery path as releases, the audit evidence is already in the trail when you need to produce it.
A team ships a large feature behind a flag to decouple the risk of a bad deployment from the risk of a bad release. When the code is stable and the business is ready, they request the toggle, get approval, and track the exact moment the feature went live.
No. IntegraCI wires flag changes into your governed delivery process. If you already run an external flag system, IntegraCI gates and records the toggle action through the same approval path as your releases, without displacing the tool you use to evaluate flags at runtime.
Functionally it is a separate step: you deploy the code with the feature turned off, then request the toggle independently once you are ready. IntegraCI treats that toggle request as a governed delivery action, not an unchecked config change.
The approval follows whatever path you configure for delivery actions in IntegraCI. A person reviews and signs off before the toggle takes effect in production. The decision, the approver, and the timestamp write once to a tamper-evident audit trail.
Yes. Feature Management lives alongside your existing pipelines and deploys in IntegraCI. You do not need to move your delivery tooling; the flag step slots into the same governed flow you already use for releases.
