## Beta groups/projects

If applicable, any groups/projects that are happy to have this feature turned on early. Some organizations may wish to test big changes they are interested in with a small subset of users ahead of time for example.

- `gitlab-org/gitlab` project
- `gitlab-org`/`gitlab-com` groups
- ...

## Roll Out Steps

- [ ] Enable on staging (`/chatops run feature set feature_name true --staging`)
- [ ] Test on staging
- [ ] Ensure that documentation has been updated
- [ ] Enable on GitLab.com for individual groups/projects listed above and verify behaviour  (`/chatops run feature set --project=gitlab-org/gitlab feature_name true`)
- [ ] If it is possible to perform an incremental rollout, this should be preferred. Proposed increments are: `10%`, `50%`, `100%`. Proposed minimum time between increments is 15 minutes.
- [ ] Coordinate a time to enable the flag with the SRE oncall and release managers
  - In `#production` mention `@sre-oncall` and `@release-managers`. Once an SRE on call and Release Manager on call confirm, you can proceed with the rollout
- [ ] Announce on the issue an estimated time this will be enabled on GitLab.com. **Note**: Once a feature rollout has started, it is not necessary to inform `@sre-oncall`/`@release-managers` at each stage of the gradual rollout.
- [ ] Enable on GitLab.com by running chatops command in `#production` (`/chatops run feature set feature_name true`)
- [ ] Cross post chatops Slack command to `#support_gitlab-com` ([more guidance when this is necessary in the dev docs](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/feature_flags/controls.html#where-to-run-commands)) and in your team channel
- [ ] Announce on the issue that the flag has been enabled
- [ ] Remove feature flag and add changelog entry. Ensure that the feature flag definition YAML file has been removed in the **same MR** that is removing the feature flag from the code
- [ ] After the flag removal is deployed, [clean up the feature flag](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/feature_flags/controls.html#cleaning-up) by running chatops command in `#production` channel

## Rollback Steps

- [ ] This feature can be disabled by running the following Chatops command:

```
/chatops run feature set --project=gitlab-org/gitlab feature_name false
```
