Create a dashboard for non-tech team members

Build Environment
1

Hi guys,

I’m pretty new to CircleCI (been using Jenkins for some times) and to devops more generally. I wanted to know if there was a way to create some kind of dashboard that would allow non-tech member of my team to, for example :

  • deploy an AWS EC2
  • deploy the app
  • test it
  • destroy the app and ec2.

Without using git to push code etc.
That feature exists in Jenkins, we had a dashboard with all jobs and we would just click on “build”.

Thanks!

Hi, at the moment this is not something that is provided out of the box.

It may be possible to create a custom solution by working with the API. The API allows you to trigger new pipelines as well as gather data from your jobs:

It would be great if you could post this as an idea request on our ideas board:

All votes and comments count when we plan new features for CircleCI.

Thanks!
