The Insight detail page

Take actions

Depending on your DoiT subscription plan and the nature of the insight, you can perform various actions directly from the insight detail page.

Change insight status

Maintaining the proper statuses of insights helps ensure accurate issue tracking and effective communication. On the insight detail page, you can change the status of an insight—both automated and custom—using the three dots menu () next to its current status.

Change insight status

You can mark an insight as Actionable, Acknowledged, In progress, Optimized, or Dismiss it. See Insights status for the full list of supported statuses.

Statuses of automated insights

Automated insights with statuses that are not manually set are subject to system updates.

For example, insights generated from cloud billing data are refreshed daily, which means a currently Optimized or even Dismissed insight may become Actionable days later. However, once an insight's status has been manually updated, it can only be changed manually thereafter.

Get expert advice

The Contact a human expert option allows you to create a support request with prefilled information to get expert advice from DoiT Cloud Reliability Engineers.

Get your team involved

The Create thread option is used to create one or more Jira issues in your organization to manage the work on actionable recommendations. See Create and manage threads for more information.

Automate the insight

The Create a CloudFlow option is available to a limited number of insights. It lets you build a CloudFlow with pre-populated information such as services and data from the insight to automate the processes that implement the recommendation.

See a tutorial that walks you through the process of creating a CloudFlow from an insight.

Open report

The Open report option is available to a selected number of FinOps insights. It shows relevant data in a Cloud Analytics report to help you better understand the recommendations.
