Configure for your Organization

When running the Collaboration Manager in production, you may want to provide information about the team responsible for it.

You can set this information from the configuration page in the admin interface. Navigate to Settings, then Configuration, then edit the file to your liking.

About your Organization

You can set URLs to your organization's privacy policy and imprint. These are shown in the footer. The provider field should be used for the name of the team responsible for the Collaboration Manager.

metadata:
    privacy_policy_url: https://example.com/privacy
    imprint_url: https://example.com/imprint
    provider: Systems Engineering Toolchain team
    authentication_provider: OAuth2
    environment: '-'

You can edit the links in the navigation bar. This can be useful if you want to link to external resources or if you are not using the default monitoring setup.

navbar:
    external_links:
        - name: Grafana
          service: grafana
          role: administrator
        - name: Prometheus
          service: prometheus
          role: administrator
        - name: Documentation
          service: documentation
          role: user

In addition to the default service links, you can add your own by using href instead of service.

navbar:
    external_links:
        - name: Example
          href: https://example.com
          role: user

The role field and can be one of user or administrator. While this will hide the link from users without the appropriate role, it is not a security feature, and you should make sure that the linked service enforces the necessary access controls.

Feedback

Configure SMTP server for feedback

For feedback to be sent, you need to configure an SMTP server in the values.yaml of the Helm chart. Have a look at the alerting.email configuration.

Capella Collaboration Manager can prompt users for feedback. This can be useful for learning about any potential issues users may be facing.

There are several different types of feedback prompt:

  • After a session: Prompt the user for feedback after they have manually terminated a session.
  • On the session card: Show a feedback button on the session card.
  • In the footer: Show a feedback button in the footer.
  • Interval: Prompt the user for feedback after a certain number of hours have passed since the last prompt.
feedback:
    enabled: true
    after_session: true
    on_footer: true
    on_session_card: true
    interval:
        enabled: true
        hours_between_prompt: 168
    recipients: # (1)!
        - test1@example.com
        - test2@example.com

Prompts that are associated with a session automatically include anonymized metadata about the session.
