 Description  « Hide
One popular feedback in my QB deployment was "User Build(s) Dashboard".

The dashboard is fully configurable where user can add interested build configurations from a global list. Dashboard provides filtered views into user builds vs all builds. (Default is user builds). All scheduled builds are assigned to a predefined user in the system.

We have 100 buildable configurations, and most people are only interested in about 10, so it would be good if they can have a customisable dashboard to show them just the configurations they care about.

I second this request - different roles, or groups, (QA engineer, SW engineer, SW team lead, SW manager) need a different dashboard.
Users should be able to select which configurations they want to view in their login page. Also, the first screen should usually contain some kind of statistics (possibly custom reports) - which will provide a quick overview (success percent, status of last 5 or 10 builds, etc) of the the configurations they are tracking.
Also, an admin should be able to design dashboard templates, and set these templates as default dashboard for different groups.

Another request might be relevant from forum:

We have several groups of users, who need access to artifacts from several different builds.
Currently, they have to manually browse the configuration tree, find the relevant builds (sometimes 20-30 different builds), right-click the artifact link and get the relevant artifact.
Is there a simpler way to do this in QB? What I would hope is that a user (or a group) can define the configurations who's artifacts they need, and then be able to go to a single page, which contains links to all the relevant artifacts (the artifacts of builds from configurations that were marked by the user).
Of course, using the RESTAPI one can achieve something similar, but we want to use out-of-the-box functionality as much as possible.
