Portfolio and projects

Group factories into projects, roll up their metrics in the portfolio, and plan roadmaps across them.

A project groups the factories that serve one product or goal, and the portfolio rolls up their work, cost and pending decisions across every project. Projects and the portfolio are per team: a project's factories belong to one team, and you see the current team's projects. See Teams and users.

Projects

A project has a name, an owner and a list of factories, for example "Customer portal" with webapp, api and mobile. Creating a project links each listed factory to it.

To create a project through the API, your token needs send on every factory in it. The creator becomes the owner.

A work item sent through the API can name a project.

A project can hold environments: variables and secrets its factories and Studio Apps get in runs and previews. See Project environments.

Each project can hold one roadmap from the plan agent. Making a new plan replaces the project's current roadmap.

The portfolio

For each project, the portfolio shows each factory's metrics and these totals:

Total Meaning
PRs opened Work items with a pull request, across the project's factories
PRs merged Work items completed by a merge
Cost Run costs in USD
Active work items Work items not yet complete, cancelled or failed
Pending decisions Open gates in the project's factories

Across all factories it also shows the number of factories, PRs merged, cost and active work items.

Metrics cover the last 30 days by default. You can pass another start date.

Weekly digest

The digest tells each person which decisions are waiting on them, oldest first, with a link to each one. See Inbox.
