๐Measuring your workflow
Welcome! Let's get you started with collecting events so you can get insights on your existing workflow before you start changing it.
The first step is to set up a Workflow Agent that will collect events from your existing systems. As you send us events, we process them into important insights about your delivery which you can see within our Insights dashboard:
Insights give you an important benchmark on your current workflow before you begin changing it, but they will also allow you to augment your workflow soon too. Events have a dual purpose. The first is observability (KPIs & Audit Trails) but soon they will also allow you to connect aspects of your workflow together as well, using event triggers.
For a deeper dive into how Workflows Agents work under the hood, please feel free to check out our Agents documentation which provides details on how to custom integrate your workflow via our API.
That said, for most, there is an easier path forward! We have out of the box integrations with Github and CircleCI which are where we recommend starting...
๐ Setting up a Workflow Agent
We currently have a few easy to setup Workflow Agents that are ready to install so you can start collecting events across your existing workflow.
- GitHub Agent - A Github App which installs directly into your organization. You can select the repositories to collect insights from.
- CircleCI Orb - Drop our orb into your CircleCI configuration and send us events that are custom to your implementation.
- Our API - Don't use GitHub or CircleCI? CTO.ai can collect Events and provide Insights from any system using our REST API.
