When you add deployment data to Cortex, it is visible on entity pages, in Eng Intelligence reporting, in executive reports, and can be accessed via CQL.
To get deploys into Cortex, you must use the Add deployment for entity API endpoint.
Adding a customData object to your API call allows you the flexibility to add metadata that is important to your organization.
If there is custom data included for a deploy, you can view it under "Recent activity" on an entity. Click the 3 dots icon to expand and view the custom data:
Deployment information appears in several places on an entity page:
While viewing an entity page, you can see last deployment information near the top of the page:
Near the bottom of an entity page, deploys will also appear under "Recent activity."
In the left sidebar of an entity, click Events. This page includes:
A visual chart of deploys.
By default the chart shows data from the last month. Click the Last month dropdown in the upper right to change the timeframe.
All recent events for the entity. In the upper right corner of the events list, click Filter to select and apply filters for this list. You can choose to only view the deploy event types.
When you send deploy data into Cortex, you can use this information in Eng Intelligence reporting to gain insight into your deploy metrics. Deploy metrics include average number of deploys per week and deploy change failure rate.
In Eng Intelligence, click into an entity to open a side panel with a historical performance graph.
Read more about using Eng Intelligence in the documentation.
You can use deploy data to write rules for Scorecards and to create CQL reports.
See more examples in the CQL Explorer in Cortex.
