A project administrator can define the default behavior for their project: whether an initial deployment (creating a new environment) should require approval at the plan stage. This value is the **default** only. A user with a Deployer (or above) role can override it when creating an environment. Consecutive deployments The default auto-approve value for every consecutive deployment to an existing environment is based on the last deployment, not the project's default setting. For example, if you deploy the Production environment with auto-approve **off**, your next deployment defaults to **off** even if the project default is **on**. Configure this setting under the **Policies** tab in **Project Settings**.
