So, you can trigger a pipeline in any project (you must have access to this project of course). There are two types of downstream pipelines: multi-project pipelines child pipelines Let's omit child pipelines and have a look at multi-project pipelines. It is very easy to use.

As always, I am going to provide some examples, so you will understand it better. The first example: you want to trigger a pipeline in another project after the deployment of your service/s. How to do that? Here we want to trigger this pipeline (project my/run-tests ). Let's say that we want to run some tests after each deployment: We need to add the job which will trigger this pipeline in my/run-...
