This is the my .drone.yml file
kind: pipeline
type: exec
name: Deploy to UAT
trigger:
branch:

clone:
disable: true
steps:
- name: Deploy to UAT
failure: ignore

Resolution
If you want to allow a step to fail without failing the entire pipeline, you can provide failure: ignore attribute. In this way, you are instructing Drone to ignore the failure of an individual step. As per the .drone.yml file, you have defined this attribute. So, the step failure didn’t reflect in the notification. You can also use when clause to specify that a step should run on success/failure.
when:
status:
- success
- failure
