Enov8 CMDB Resource Sync
The Enov8 CMDB Resource Sync lets your pipelines send version and/or status updates for a specific CMDB resource directly into Enov8.
It removes manual updates, keeping Enov8 records current after every deployment. Works with YAML pipelines or the Pipeline UI and uses Service Connections for secure, reusable credentials.
Key Features
- 🔗 Direct pipeline → Enov8 CMDB: Update resource details (status and/or version).
- 🚀 Automated on deploy: Push updates on every run.
- 🔐 Secure Service Connection: Store Ecosystem URL, App ID, App Key once; reuse across pipelines.
- ⚙️ YAML or Pipeline UI: Works with both YAML pipelines and Pipeline UI.
- 🧩 Flexible Resource Types: Choose between Environment Instance, System Component, or System Interface.
