Overview

The form collects: name (required), description, category, default_risk_level (low, medium, high), auto_approve (boolean toggle), is_active (boolean toggle, default true), default_implementation_plan, default_rollback_plan, and default_test_plan. On success, navigates to /it/changes/templates.
Categories (code-defined): infrastructure, application, security, network, database, other.
Who it’s for
