| Description |

The new Pipelines visualization is a great feature. Unfortunately, most of our builds are setup to allow promotions to any environment directly from the build (rather than chaining deployments together). That is, we promote a build to DEV, then we later promote the same build to QA rather than promoting the DEV deployment/promotion itself to QA.
The current Pipelines page only shows you the most recent promotion for the build. That's interesting, but not all that useful for us. It would be a huge benefit if we could use it to see all of the promotions that were triggered from a build and when (or at least the most recent promotion of each type). You wouldn't want to render it the same way you do with the chained promotions (Build > Deploy to DEV > Deploy to QA > Deploy to STG), but I think you could do something like this for these types of promotions: Build 123 > Deploy to DEV | > Deploy to QA | > Deploy to STG The two visualizations could work together as well: Build 123 > Deploy to DEV > Run Smoke Tests | > Deploy to QA > Run Acceptance Tests If that's too difficult, if you could at least click on or hover over the last promotion for the build and see a list of all the previous promotions that would still be very useful.
