Sequencing actions
By default, when you add actions to a workflow, they are added side by side in the
visual editor. This means that the actions
will run in parallel when you start a workflow run. If you want actions to run in
sequential order (and appear vertically in the visual editor), you must set up
dependencies between them. For example, you might set up a Test action to
depend on the Build action so that the test action runs after the build
action.
You can set up dependencies between actions and action groups. You can also configure one-to-many dependencies so that one action depends on several others in order to start. Consult the guidelines in Setting up dependencies between actions to ensure your dependency setup conforms with the workflow's YAML syntax.
