English
Graph editor
The page of a single operation opens from the Workspaces list, and also from a link in a release or in a build history row.
The graph is read-only
Even though the page looks like a graph editor, you cannot build or change the graph here. Nodes cannot be added, deleted, renamed or wired up differently, and node parameters cannot be edited. The system builds the graph from whatever you started; your job is to read it.
Nodes on the graph
A node is one step of the operation. Step names come from the system and are written in English — for example, steps that prepare a configuration value, steps that write changes to the repository, the step that applies settings on the stand, steps that refresh cluster and stand data. In the Execution Steps panel the same steps are grouped by meaning: synchronisation, stand settings, repository work, release; steps with no group land under “Ungrouped”.
Connections between nodes
A connection runs from one node to the next and means exactly what it looks like: until the previous node has finished, the next one does not start.
The graph is rarely a straight line. The typical shape is a fan: several branches run in parallel (one per changed parameter, for instance) and then converge on a shared node at the end. That shared node waits for all incoming branches — which is why the final step (applying settings, the combined commit of changes) starts last, once everything else is ready.
How to see what a node does
The step card opens on a double click on the node, or with a right click on it and the Information item.
Tabs only appear when they have something to show:
| Tab | What is inside |
|---|---|
| Overview | The step state; an Error block with the error text, if there was one; a Details block — reference name/value pairs, sometimes including links to external systems such as the build pipeline |
| Data | The step's Input data and Output data in their raw form — what the step received and what it passed on |
| Logs | The step's line-by-line output |
Where to look for step parameters
A node has no separate settings panel. Everything the step worked with is on the “Data” tab, and the meaningful specifics — a version, a variable name, a link to an external system — are collected in the “Details” block on the “Overview” tab.
