What does the build mean?

Hi all
I am trying to understand the build of the command drone build promote. On the page https://docs.drone.io/cli/build/drone-build-promote/ it shows the following example:

$ drone build promote octocat/hello-world 42 production

what does the 42 mean?

Thanks

In the example command, 42 refers to the build number. You might also find this guide to be helpful when using the promotion feature.

Example promotes build 42 to production:
$ drone build promote octocat/hello-world 42 production
